Patricia R. McGowan

I first broke 100 in golf with a 98 at Batavia Country Club, at a Rick Zurak tournament where I carpooled with the McGowans on a middle-school summer, one of many such adventures. Mrs. McGowan drove us from OP to Batavia, and I remember her pep talk in the car, as I expressed doubts in my abilities, and her telling me that it was going to be a great round and I was going to break 100. I had been close but hadn't quite crossed the threshold yet. She believed I could do it before I did, and I...

So sorry to hear about Patti! Such a fun person. Peace to her family

Dear siblings, I heard about Patti last evening...my deepest sympathy to you & your families.. Though it's been years since I have seen you, I have the fondest thoughts of each of you. Your Mom was such a dear friend and co worker. May Patti rest in heavenly peace. May our Dear Lord wrap His loving arms around each of you. Sending loving thoughts, Nadine Murphy (WSDC nurse)

I have no doubt that there is one more special angel watching over us. The joy Patti brought to life is treasured. It has been too long since we were in the same place together. Even with her passing, Patti found one more way to bring our family together. Someone wrote, "Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, but love leaves a memory no one can steal". I know I am not crying because Patti's life is over, I am smiling because her life happened. Love, Jimmy Owens

We are so saddened to hear of this news. Our hearts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. May you find comfort in the memories of all the great times spent together. May the good Lord bring you peace at this difficult time. We are with you in spirit, sending you love and hugs. Love, Barb and Bob Owens

Arlene and I were saddened to hear the news of Patti´s passing and send our deepest condolences. There are so many memories for me going back to the days growing up when our families were very close. I will always remember your smile and laugh. Rest in peace, Patti.
