Patricia Cray

I'm so glad I got to "meet" you! You were an inspiration to me when I was putting together our families' family history!! I wasn't able to travel back to Pennsylvania to meet you, but we talked often and wrote often. You were a highlight in my life!! Your cousin Effe Sykes Simpson

I knew Pat as a high school school classmate. We became friends when we participated in the senior class play. We reconnected at the sixtieth anniversary of our graduation and engaged in thoughtful discussions and reflections by email until her death. She was one of the most intelligent and insightful individuals I have known. I miss her perspective on many issues and her book recommendations especially.

She is one of those people in my life I will never forget- and I haven´t

I went to school with Pat when Quinnipiac was still a college-I am so sorry I lost touch with her but have thought about her often and had put off writing- and only now have read that she has died- I am sadder than you know- I am so very sorry

I put mom's name in the lights one last time.

I remember Pat, and her then recently born son Gabriel, with love. Very spécial. Kees

Dear Gabriel, I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. I have fond memories of living with the two of you in NYC when you were only six months old. You are all in my prayers.
