Not sure what to say?

John-
Of all my golfing buddies Pat was my favorite. I always enjoyed her attitude about golf and life. I am a better person for having known her.
I treasure the times that we had on and off the golf course.

Dear John and family, your wife and mom is known for her great pick (John) and wonderful family. What a group. We will always remember her and are comforted by knowing the strength and support you will draw from each other and the world of friends and admirers you have gathered over the years. Love, Duke and Sarah.

Aunt Pat had such a special way of making everyone feel like the most important person in the world. From the time I was a child, I felt her gentle, loving kindness. She was such an influential person in my life, helping me grow as a person and always letting me know how much she loved me. The world was a better place with her in it. Now heaven will be. She'll always have a special place in my heart as I know she will in many others'. I send my love to Uncle John and all her family. God...

Ken and I so enjoyed our friendship with Pat. When she rented our condo in FL, I would surprise her with an improvement that she would always rave about. Her enthusiasm and love of life and especially family were traits that I will never forget. Pat was a treasure.

My dear Aunt Pat, matriarch of our family, and loving, wonderful woman... It seemed to be a passing most becoming of the woman she was--strong, loving, thoughtful, beautiful, giving and peaceful. Her passing brings all strong emotions to the forefront of our hearts. Big hugs and humming kisses to the most “darling“. I often strive to be a better person do to her, and I always will.
Thank you Laine for sharing your beautiful thoughts.

Pat has not gone -- she remains with us.
Each of you - all of you -- carry within you the unending love and wonderful spirit of her, your mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. You are the embodiment of her infinite spirit which now continues, through you, forever.
We three sisters, Betty Jane, Joyce and Diane carry her memory in ours --
We love you all and hold you in our hearts as the living reality of Patricia on this plane of existence.

To all of the Rahm, Halls, and Kelleys, my deepest condolences. Your grandma was a very special lady, she had an amazingly strong spirit and I will miss her holding my face and squeezing my hands each time I saw her. My guess is she hugged God before he could welcome her! Love, Laine Pehta
