PATRICIA CLOHERTY

thank you for showing me New York

Dear Pat, I can't believe you have left us now for 2 years. There have been so many changes in our family and business, I know you will feel proud of what we do, your spirit always guides me to push for the best, in our cherished mommydaddyme and new Skill Engine. You are always my mentor.

Dear Pat, Our family has been missing you so much, that 2018 Christmas lunch picture taken at your Coconut Grove residence constantly reminds us of the precious moments we shared together. With your love and encouragement, we are living every day with more vigor and better purpose. Much love from us, Leslie, Javed and Safiya

I just lost a dear friend and mentor who has inspired me so much all these years. To our professional life, Pat was my advisor and guiding light as we build our EdTech, and women focused FinTech; Whenever I needed a direction, she was there, always strong, always wise. To our daughter, she was the caring auntie Pat who remembered her birthday, adored her drawings, and wrote her school reference letters. I was deeply saddened to have missed a call from Pat just a day before her passing but...

I first knew Pat at International House in nyc. Later on we were roommates for years at 380 Riverside Drive. She was a ray of sunshine to all who knew her. I am heartbroken over her passing but grateful that I knew her many years ago. Lee Harper Vason

The Committee of 200 invited me to join the organization when Patricia was president. I was on pins and needles at my first C200 meeting, but all that changed when I bumped into her in the ladies room. She introduced herself, I told her I was a nervous new member, and she went out of her way on that day and many others to make me feel at home. Though we haven't corresponded in many years, I still remember that moment and all others with Patricia. She was truly one-of-a-kind!

I am so sorry to learn of Pat´s passing but am pleased but hardly surprised to learn that her life since I last saw her in 1968 was so productive. I was President of the Columbia University Student Chapter of the Society for International Development from 1966 to 1968. Pat was our secretary and was a tremendous contributor to the chapter´s activities and motivator for me and others involved with our programs. She was a great joy to work with and a wonderful person. My condolences to her...
