My friend, my neighbor, a beautiful honest woman always there for others without question or excuse. You served humanity tirelessly. I will forever be grateful for all the lessons I learned by just being near you and working around you and sharing projects, ideas , meals, laughter, tears...all of it! A woman of enormous strength and quiet power, forever missed.

Dear Magnus Family,
We are and have been praying for all of you because of your dear loved one, Pat Magnus. "Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted".
We are comforted that we had the opportunity to meet Pat and her husband Robert who came to our home in Pennsylvania and to New York State to visit family. She left us a legacy of a grandson, Teddy Magnus who married into our family and gave us three precious great-grandchildren, Sophie, Colin & Milo.
Pat was part of the Seaman family that dwelt on Long Island, NY since the 1600's and it has given pleasure to read about their fortitude and contributions to the young nation of the United States.
She added her contributions to many people as well.
