I was so sorry to read of Pat's passing. You have my deepest sympathy and my thoughts and prayers are with you. I worked with Pat for quite a few years at Ohio Bell. She always liked to tease me about my ties.

Ray: I was sorry to read of your wife's passing. It has been many years since I have seen both of you but I do remember the class of 1958. My mother and father took you and Pat and the rest of the 1958 class on your trip to Washington D C and New York. I still have the picture of the class in Washingto D C. You have my deepest sympathy in this difficult time. May GOD comfort you in your time of need. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Ralph F. Howard, Jr.

Dear Ray and family,
We have fond memories of the two of you when we first met you in Mexico. Pat was a proud wife, mother and grand mother and a good friend to many. We caught up with you thru the years and treasure our friendship with you. Pat will be missed by many. You have our sincere sympathy.

Ray,
I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with Pat for many years at Ohio Bell and can assure you she was a strong addition to her work group.
She talked about both you and Michael on a daily basis and it was very clear how much she loved both of you. I know you both have wonderful memories of her.
