Patricia Louise Anderson

Pat was a gift to the city of Wood Village. She served on our Parks Commission from 2006-2012. She would be so happy to see we are developing a nature park at the corner of Wood Village Blvd and Arata Road. She was a charter member of our community garden. Her garden was beautiful and productive I learned a lot from her so the other gardeners. She was so knowledgeable and so generous with her teaching. She wanted everyone to be successful. I competed with Pat for a spot on our city council....

I remember Pat as a feisty, loyal friend. She excelled in writing her personal account of days living in the wilds with critters and pups. I reread her account of "The Grass Police" whenever I need a chuckle. I fear we could not pass that test either. For a time we exchanged Christmas cards but as habit would, did not continue. I thank her for encouraging my use of the computer and entry into the 'new world'.
As the song goes, "She did it her way". Rock on Pat.
Friend, Jen

I was privileged to know Pat for a short amount of time at the Sunday Open Knit sessions at Northwest Wools. Her sense of humor and occasional sly remarks kept us all engaged and real in a very good sense. I have missed you, Pat, all these pandemic months, and will miss you greatly when we resume our sessions. Much love to you, Pat! Carol Salisbury

Pat and I had some great times together here in Millbrae when our children were growing up together. I missed her when she moved and I know all of you will miss her now. Remember the good times, Lin

Pat was always such a fun person to talk with when coming in for classes at the Stuhr Center. What a blessing to meet such a kind soul. Prayers to your family

I had the joy and privilege of working with Tricia for several years in the Tobacco Education Clearinghouse of California, and was fortunate to have visited her in the Portland area whenever we were traveling in the area. Her enthusiasm and dedication to her job were greatly appreciated as was her friendship over the years. I looked forward to enjoying her holiday letters each year and will miss her very much. My thoughts and sympathy are with all of the family.

I was so sorry to hear of Pat's passing. I loved Pat's wit and dry sense of humor!! I always got a kick out of her at family gatherings. I admire her devotion to her family, the environment, and trying to do her part to make things better. She will be missed!! Lots of love,
Beth

Pat and I caught up with one another at the SW Class of 55 50th Reunion. She really enjoyed seeing everyone at that time. We continued to keep in touch on birthdays and talked about our love of quilting and knitting. Pat was very accomplished in both and won prizes for her quilts and knitting. She always loved to share stories about her beloved grandchildren and precious pets. I felt that Pat lived her life to the fullest. My sincerest sympathies go out to her family.

Thank you for everything you have done to make me who I am today! You will be well missed and forever in my heart. I LOVE YOU!!!
