My heartfelt condolences goes out to the family. Pat was not just a guidance counselor, she was a lady that never stopped caring for every one she touched. I am so proud to have called her my friend. This wonderful women touched my life so many ways to even count over the last 29 years. God definitely broke the mold. The most rememberable memory is Ed Butler introducing me to you that August day in 1992. Thank you for coming to my house and meeting my mom and me, and getting me enrolled at Walsh. That evening you changed my life forever Pat. Thank You. You will NEVER be forgotten. Love always

My condolences to Pat's family. I knew Pat and Bob during my years as Director of Campus Ministry and member of the faculty at St Bonaventure, and my 28 years on the Board of Trustees. She and Bob were great individuals. Great persons of faith. Devoted to their family, the Allegany, Olean Community, and SBU. I read with interest that she became involved with Camp New Horizons. I was one of the founders of Camp New Horizon. It was a great endeavor and so good to hear special persons like Pat became involved with the program Fr John O'Connor OFM SBU 1973, to 1982

Mrs. Conroy was a wonderful lady. Will always remember piling in her Ford station wagon like a bus as children after school at St. Bonaventure for rides home. The world would be a much better place with more like her.

Pat.... everytime I go through hard time, think of you and ask myself... what would you do... then there is an answer.
You show me what unconditional love is. Your hug gives me courage to live right. Your smile relieves my anxiety. Your laughter simply thrills everyone around you.
Guess you are up there, but you are always in my heart and will be just like you are doing fine down here with us. Thank you for showing me such a wonderful love and I shall pass along doing the same or more... just like the way you live. I love you Pat.

I did not know your mother/grandmother personally but whenever I had the privelege of interacting with her at Home Depot garden center or around town I count it as an honor. She was always kind and such a sweet person. I am so sorry for your loss.

I´m very sorry for the loss of Mrs.Conroy. She is one of the brightest souls I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I used to live diagonal to her on Franklin St. My father, Rob, and I used to visit her every Halloween. She was always delighted to see us.
Mrs.Conroy and I would eye each other at the end of church and I´d always get great BIG bear hug from her. She was a delight and will very truly be missed. I would have hoped to be there in person to share my condolences, but am very sadly out of state for work, and send Mrs. Conroy and your family my prayers.
