Pat was an incredible artist that enjoyed sculpting in different mediums, but really loved the bronze sculpting process and her work can even be found at the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation. She loved painting and restoring valuable artifacts. Pat also loved nature and every creature in it. She was like a Dr. Doolittle when it came to relating to any animal through her loving and nurturing ways. Pat also enjoyed the game of Bridge where she became a life master in rankings and played in tournaments around the United States. She had a great sense of humor and people loved being around her. She changed the world with just a smile. She will be deeply missed by all those who know her and loved her.
