Even though I'm sure Jason and I terrorized her as kids, Patty always opened her home to me and treated me like one of her own. I'm thankful she is no longer suffering
My condolences to the family.

To my sister….. Patty
If tears could build a stairway
and thoughts a memory lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.
My heart's still active in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you'll always stay.
God knows why, with chilling touch,
Death gathers those we love so much,
And what now seems so strange and dim,
Will all be clear, when we meet Him.
I Knew you for a Moment.. love, your sister karen

I feel a warmth around me
like your presence is so near,
And I close my eyes to visualize
your face when you were here,
I endure the times we spent together
and they are locked inside my heart,
For as long as I have those memories
we will never be apart,
Even though we cannot speak no more
my voice is always there,
Because every night before I sleep
I have you in my prayer.......
Love your sister,
Karen

My deepest sympathy to the McMahon family. Patricia (Patty) was a very kind friend in high school and will certainly be missed by all of her Penn Hills classmates of "82".

Don't be dismayed at goodbyes. A farewell is before you can meet again. And meeting again after a moment or a lifetime is certain for those who are friends. --- Richard Bach
Rest in eternal peace, Patty

So very sorry to hear about Patty. She fought long and hard and is totally pain free now. This awful desease took her life but not her spirit and memory. Celebrate life as Patty would and will be doing with her Mom. You will be forever in our hearts.
