Your (family) loss is shared by many. Pat was a 3 time president of our magic club and always willing to share her talents and gifts with others. This spirit was extended to older members with health problems, and her giving nature always came through generously and brightly. She will not be forgotten. My condolences to the family. Jim Bush
