Donald, Erin & Family.
Patricia was simply a "treasure". A wife, a mother, a grandmother, a neighbor and good friend along with a 30 year career at RIG. I met her 15 years ago when I joined the RIG "family". Her professionalism in the office was only out measured by her kindness to all. Miss her so much.
A life so well lived. May she rest in heavenly peace.
With My Deepest Sympathy.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Don and the family. Pat was a kind and caring person who always showed compassion for others. After I lost my husband Len, when we would see each other at Pinos, she would always stop and ask how I was. Always a smile for me and words of encouragement. She is gone but will never be forgotten. God has wrapped his arms around her as he did Len and she will forever be loved and at peace. Blessings to all that had the privilege to know her.
