Just learned this morning of Pat's passing as I tried to phone her this morning from San Francisco. We worked together in 1986-1987 at Society Bank and stayed friends throughout the decades that followed, although we only spoke once or twice a year. I will miss her. My condolences to Don and the rest of Pat's loving family. Pat could always brighten my mood with her wonderful laughter and loving spirit. Rest in peace, Pat.

Patricia, you will be very missed by family and friends. The Times I've met you, you were a grand yet funny lady. I will also miss your funny wit on Facebook! Rest in Peace.
