I have such great memories of Pat growing up. Knowing her for so many years after Jan and Jay were married. We always enjoyed being with her. She was such a strong woman and definitely enjoyed life. She loved her family and friends and at 95 she really did live life to the fullest. Wishing the whole family peace, love and comfort during this time. Being together is so important. She will be missed.

Unfortunately, I never actually met Pat but I have had the great pleasure of knowing her sons, especially Charles. Judging her by the kids she raised, she was an accomplished woman who left a positive mark on this world. She'll be missed by many. We send our condolences from Madison.

What a special mom she was! My family lived next door to Pat for over 10 years. Pat was kind and loved her children. I remember here coming to our family functions with her friend Warren. I know you will miss her. She has gone to be with our Lord.
Love,

Growing up in the 70's, "Aunt Pat" made her residence a second home to many of us. She was always warm, loving, and had a sharp wit. She also seemed to know about our "shenanigans" before the rest of our parents.
I appreciated the fact that as "our second Mom, " she had no trouble giving us praise when we did things well and she had no problem dressing us down if we were stupid. She was a fantastic, caring, and empathetic lady with whom I was very blessed to know. Thank you, Price...

I met Pat when we volunteered at the Fox Theater. She was a lovely woman who always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. I admired her ageless energy and sparkle. She lit up a room, even when the room was as big as the Fox lobby. She and her daughter Jan were a great team. My sincerest condolences to her family.

Pat was such a lively, vivacious woman. She made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. She was able to live on her own to the end, and be as self-sufficient as possible. She loved her family and loved life. She is the poster child for aging- she sure did it well, up to the end! My deepest condolences to her family, she will surely be missed.
