Susan & Family
I am very sorry to hear about Pat's passing. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. When I think of Pat I smile. She was the nicest and kindest person anyone could meet. Just being around her for the short amount of times was always happy and fun ones for me. Going to your beautiful home in Vermont was a pleasure to experience and just to have you in my life was great. You will be missed. Although I rarely saw Pat and Susan in the recent years you both were always in my thoughts especially every hockey season. Whenever I had a game near your home I always stopped by hoping to see you both. But I never had any luck. I am sorry I didn't see you. May you rest in Peace. Love,Jade

Susan, I heard the Pat was sick around Christmas time from Jade. So many times I thought that I should call or stop by. I didn't and I am so sorry for that! I am SO sorry that Pat is gone!! My fondest memories are in Vermont, the cabin, the dogs, the snow and the laughs! You are in my thoughts and prayers and I hope that I will get to see you soon! Phyllis

Sue,
Although I didn't know Pat, I can see from the guest book what a very special person she was. I am deeply sorry for the loss of your dear companion.

I met Pat when I was a staffer at the UVM alumni office and took to her immediately! We were always on the same page, and she had such a snappy wit! Later, when I moved to Philadelphia, it was a pleasure to be able to see her more often, sometimes heading to UVM events together. I always appreciated her, and am so sorry to hear she's no longer with us. She's got a special spot in my heart, and I know through her medical work that she's left a legacy of contributions to the field that will live on. Susan and members of Pat's family, please accept my condolences.

I've known Pat since I was 8 years old and am now 48. Boy did she make me laugh and took the best care of my Mom. I'll never forget the incredible good food back in the day out at the house on Iven Avenue. I didn't see her much as an adult, but when I did, the hugs and smiles were great. I find I miss her more than I would have ever guessed. Please accept my sincerest condolences.
