I played for Pat's Master's recital at North Texas and for several of her comic shows. She was a delight to be with, a fine musician and wonderful friend. She was a treasure of a human being and I was privileged to have known and worked with her. People such as Pat should lived forever.

Ms. Crenshaw was my music teacher at Margaret B Henderson in Oak Cliff for third, fourth, fifth and sixth grade. She taught me so much, helped me to love music and love to sing. So sorry to hear of her passing. I know she touched so many lives. RIP Ms Crenshaw

Had her as a teacher at Henderson back in the 70's always enjoyed her as a teacher. My Sympathy to the family. Thanks for the memories.

I first met Pat Crenshaw when I accompanied her graduate recital at the University of North Texas in, I believe, the summer of 1963. She was a fine musician and thoroughly enjoyed working with her. Thankfully, we were able to stay in touch through the years. I would sometimes stop in Dallas on my way to Oklahoma from Mississippi in 1962-64, and always looked forward to seeing Pat and her Mother. Pat came to Lawton, Oklahoma where we lived to give one of her wonderful comic performances at...

Patty and my mother were wonderful friends who grew up together. Both singers, both SMU grads, Patty and my mom stayed lifelong friends. She lived a good life!!

Phyllis and I just learned that Pat's passing we didn't know her but a few years but she left memories that will never be forgotten we're so proud to be called her friend rest in peace Pat

Pat was our music teacher at Margaret B. Henderson elementary. All my siblings were also taught to sing and appreciate music. She managed to get each 6th grade class to ride a bus to the Fair Park Music Hall to see the opera showing that season. My sister Jane saw "Madame Butterfly" and I saw " La Traviata". What a special occasion that was. She performed in church and was enjoyed by all who heard her sing. Rest in song, Pat.

I have known Pat for many years both as an elementary music teacher and a member of the Dallas Opera chorus. We had so many fun times in the DO. She had a way of making everyone feel good as well as laugh. Her Hat Show was the best and you went away with sore abdominal muscles from all the laughing. She had a beautiful voice and was a strict choral director. We all love Pat and will miss her for all the reasons stated in the obituary. Prayers for all of the family she left behind but be...

Pat was a wonderful. fun lady that I met when she joined the Oak Cliff Lions Club! Her history of music is unbelievable, but fantastic. I am proud to have known Pat. May God Bless Pat and the Family.
