Patricia "Pat" Ruffing

Dear Jenny and family...I was one of your Mom's home health nurses and always enjoyed the times I had with her. Even on the days when she was not up to it, she was willing to let me do my job without complaining. Most of our conversations were about her children. She had a deep desire to fight for you. Your mom told me each visit just how proud she was of all of you. She taught me many things in a short period of time...and I will miss her. Praying for ya'll Char Cleboski
Memorial...

To the family of Pat: I just heard the news today of Pat's passing and was deeply, deeply saddened by it. I work at HNMC and had the privalege of working with her throughout the last 4yrs. She encouraged me to persue my dream of becoming a nurse and was genuinely excited when I told her the news of being accepted to nursing school. She was a courageous and great woman, but I am sure you all know this already. My Prayers are with you always.

~Pat, I will miss you dearly and will...

Ms Pat's Family

My heart is sadden at the news of her passing. While dealing with an injury at work, Ms Pat was so caring towards me, calling to check up on to see how I was doing. I could always count on her to say something to make me laugh, she was such a JOY to be around and she will be missed, but I know she's in a better place.

My heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with you all (Jenny,Chris,Patrick and family) Pat was an amazing, wonderful and loving person. I am blessed and thankful to have had her as a friend.

The Ruffing Family were our long-neighbors. My family and I send our love and prayers to all the Ruffings. Pat was an extraordinarily energetic and loving presence. I honor her for her nursing skill, her love of her family and her courage. With deepest sympathy,
Pat Williams Szmania and Family

Thank you Pat for the charming and giving person that you were. I will always hold fond memories of our times at CCEMS.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. May each day bring comfort, peace, and loving memories of your wonderful mother, sister, friend.

I was saddened to read of Pat's death in our newspaper today. She graduated with our class of 1961. Our sympathy to the family and brothers Mike and Bruce, who share the same school memories.

Jenny, Patrick and Chris: I am so very sorry to hear about Pat. She was a member of our family although we all lost touch. I wish you all the best and so much love to you all. She was an amazing woman, friend and mother. Marianne Mayeux
