I got to know Pat during visits with my two golden retrievers. She was a very sweet lady and we are missing her.

I worked with Pat at Westfield Elementary when it was the only elementary school here. She was so kind to her students. She will be missed.

Pat was one of the first people I met when I started at Westfield Schools over 25 years ago. She was very kind and friendly to the new person on the block. I have since lost touch with her and was saddened to hear that she has passed away. Also, that her husband too. My prayers are with you. May perpetual light shine upon her.
