Not sure what to say?

Like my sister, Mattie, I am only seeing these condolences now and enjoyed reading them. Mother touched many hearts and I remember well that wherever we went to grocery stores, churches or elsewhere she was friendly to everyone she met. I have learned through her example. Thank you to all who spoke so fondly of our mother. Marian Thompson nee Geisheker, first daughter, fourth child, Clinton Corners, NY

Hello. I am sad to hear of your mother's passing. I believe that I have in my possession one of her large artists easels which appears to be signed by her as P Geisheker. It is paint spattered and just so lovely. I always intended to use it but haven't in all the 46 years I have looked after it. Would any of you like to have it. Please email me if so. Thank you.

Hello to all the people who left memories of our mother. Today is 4/13/24 and I am only just seeing these. I am delighted to hear your memories and to know that you remembered her so fondly! Thank you! Best wishes Mattie Geisheker Portland Oregon

My deepest condolences
I never knew Patricia but I believe I own one of her paintings?

Hello to the Geisheker family; I babysat for the Geisheker family; and, Patricia was a wonderful person full of energy and extended lots of love to her famil y, friends and neighbors. I have a painting Patricia extended to me for my wedding; it is beautiful and lovely to look at and enjoy the memories. Veronica Hennes Brugger

So sorry! What a loss for you, her children, and for the world of art. Patricia was my favorite watercolor teacher here in Minnesota. She was funny, spirited, and unconventional as a person, and The Queen of Flower Painting as an artist! I cherish my memories of her, and the beautiful flower paintings of hers, that I am lucky to own. Thank you Patricia, for enriching my life!

What memories you must all have; your mother instilled so many wonderful things in you, love of art, flowers, and, I also remember, a love of baking--fresh bread! I always enjoyed the family Christmas party on the farm in Hubertus...

Not having seen your mother for a number of years, I, m comforted to know that she remained active in the arts through teaching--she most definitely had an impact on many.
She will most certainly be missed-
Victoria and Jock Howland

We are very sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was a delightful person and neighbor. We will never forget seeing her speeding down Sandy Blvd on her scooter, her hair flying in the wind and a plant in the basket.

We offer our sincere condolences on the death of Patricia. We are long time friends of Mark. One of Patricia's paintings hangs in a prominent spot in our Pennsylvania home.
