What a great lady! We agreed on so many things in life. She always had a recommendation of a wonderful book to read. Our annual get togethers at Tony Packos in Ohio and at the Jacaranda in Florida were jam packed with great conversation.
May you rest in beautiful peace Pat Koepfer.

To Pat's family, especially Bill, our hearts are heavy over the passing of a wonderful lady. Pat was a delight to work with at Olman Insurance. She showed up each day with a smile on her face ready to greet and serve our clients. She was a mom to the young people on our staff always available to provide advice and guidance. As our receptionist she was the face of our agency and a beautiful face she was. I was honored to have her as a loyal employee and more honored to have her as my friend. Pat's worldly light may be extinguished but her memory will continue to burn bright in my mind. May God give you his peace.
