Read MoreI worked with Pat on 2 W at Borgess 45 years ago. Since then, I have had lunch with her, along with another colleague. She was a joy to work with and to talk to. Pat had a great sense of humor. My condolences go out to her husband and the rest of her family. She will be greatly missed.

I am so grateful for the knowledge and inspiration you gave me as a Nazareth College nursing student. I will always remember your class. I'll never forget when you told me to "breathe through my ears" to clean a bed pan! Family please know I'm thinking of you!
