Pat went to Immaculate Conception High School in Elmhurst, and attended Barry College in Miami Shores, Florida, and Rosary College in River Forest, Illinois. Pat had a lengthy and successful career at Pattishall McAuliffe Hofstetter law firm in Chicago, Illinois.
Pat is preceded in death by her parents James and Catherine Brennan, brother James F. (Therese), and sister Katharine (Edward) Rohn. She is survived by her sister Rosemary (Arthur) Borris, sister-in-law Therese Brennan, and many loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces and -nephews and great great-nieces and nephews.

I really wish that I could have been been at the funeral service. Laura and I have just arrived in Sicily after having sailing from Malta and truly wish we could be part of the service. My sincere regret is that I wish that I had gotten to know her these last few decades. One tends to put things off when you think they are going to live forever. Nancy Rohn Van Marm
