David, Terri, and Teddy:
Aunt Pat will certainly be missed and was loved by many. She was such a beautiful and strong woman. She was dedicated to her family and friends and could light up the room with every warm hug, her joyful spirit, and the biggest of smiles. I will treasure the great memories I do have in the short time that I had but certainly will never forget. She brought much joy to my father (her brother) since the day they were reunited. She will always hold a special place...
