Patricia H. "Aunt Pat" Reiland

This is late coming...Pat was one of my favorite customers at my hair salon. She'd been coming to me since 1981. Sadly, sometimes the hairdresser is the last to know of someone's passing. We all loved her doggie stories and she was so cute and likable. When she stopped coming I decided to do some investigating and discovered she had passed. I'll miss her and will always remember her.

Ms. Reiland was a long standing member of Southview Country Club, where I work. We always enjoyed her frequent visits to Sunday Brunch, where she shared her stories from the neighborhood. We laughed out loud at her fun descriptions of the antics of her little Willy and, of course, her beloved Bear. She will be dearly missed.

My condolences to the family.

I am the pleasure of meeting Pat & her dad, George when I was working on the Reiland History. I told her I always wanted my first name to be Patricia instead of my middle name. She chuckled & said her middle name was Helen. So she was Patricia Helen Reiland & I was Helen Patricia Reiland. Sincere sympathy goes out to her family.

We had the good fortune to buy a home next to Pat fourteen years ago. Our cat became fast friends with Missy and Skeeter, and Pat put up with Cheesie digging in her garden. She tried mothballs, but they didn't work too well. She was a fabulous neighbor and a good friend. She never let a birthday go by un-remembered, and always had special Trick or Treat bags for our kids.
We'll miss you Pat! Love Diane, Jeff, Rita, and Valerie

My sympathies to the Reiland family. I have many fond memories of lunch with Pat and all the great stories she could tell. I snapped a photo with her at our dad's wake in mid-March, and Pat seemed in very good spirits. She'll be greatly missed.

My mother, Marge Thera, lived on Cherokee as a child and remained a lifelong friend of Pat. I met Pat when Mom returned to St. Paul after a serious stroke, and it was wonderful to talk with her. We'd agreed to get together for a cup of coffee at Old Man River when I next came to St. Paul, and I'm sorry that that now won't come to pass. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

My Sympathy is extended to all the family of Pat. I worked with Pat for 25 years. Always enjoyed her humor. After we retired we had lunch now and then. She will be missed by all.

We've lost our neighborhood historian, but value all she taught us. Love ya!!

My condolences to the Reiland family. Pat was a riot to be around. I have only fond memories of her.
I hope she is having a blast in the heavens.
