My sincerest sympathy to Pat's family, friends, and colleagues, Pat was one of my daughter's elementary teachers. (I believe K or 1st grade.) Meghan loved her... what a beautiful begin her education. Many, many years later, Pat sent us a photo of Meghan and a little friend working together in her classroom. It meant so much to us. Rest In Peace, Pat, and know that you were loved by many.

Todd, Jerry and Maria,
I was very saddened to hear the news of Pat's passing. She was Ms. Christiansen to me as third grader and Mrs. Blake as a neighbor. Always there to keep Todd and I in line.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

So sorry to hear the news about Pat. Our condolences to you -- Jerry, Todd and Maria -- and your families. Pat was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother -- a true lady. We will miss our NTL reunions and having Pat and Jerry stay with us at the lake; we are thankful we had a nice visit with you last fall. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
