I met Pat 27 years ago to have her groom my toy poodle Emily. I loved her from the beginning. She was so good with handling dogs. She treats pets as her own. She was a very special person. I also had her to groom my cockapoo Sophie after I lost Emily. She made me laugh, gave me good advice. I will greatly miss her. She's like my second Mom. Stephen and Ron, I'm so sorry about your loss. I didn't know Pat had passed away until I arrived for Sophie's appt. I am grateful to see Ron. I was in tears. Again I'm so sorry. She was a very special friend who I will never forget.

Just heard today of Pat´s passing so missed her visitation. I am so very sorry for her families loss.
I met Pat 14 years ago, through my brother Jim, when I adopted a Mini Schnauzer and she agreed to groom him. Since then has also groomed my boy Cody. We use to talk before his grooming appointment, (sometimes the time got away from us), but I so enjoyed our talks. She was truly a beautiful person and I´m thankful that I grew to know her.
RIP Pat and thank you for taking such good care of my Schnauzers.

Pat was in our neighborhood since 1989. She was our dog groomer for over 30 yrs. She was the best groomer taking time w our schnauzers and getting to know them all over the years. Her gentleness, care and love w dogs was evident. We just heard of Pats passing so we missed all of her visitation and funeral. Our hearts r so heavy and sad, losing such a beautiful and loving friend. We loved Pat and always took time to chat w her at visits. I often baked goodies for her as a special treat because we knew she enjoyed them. Especially the peanut butter blossoms. Her eyes would light up when I brought them. Please celebrate her legacy as she spread love, compassion and sweetness to Gods special creatures and to their owners. Our condolences to her husband, her family and her beloved, Enzo. Praying for u all at this difficult time.

Pat was a special lady and one of my favorite people to ride with.
We always knew how to have fun whenever we went riding.
Heartbreaking to hear this news.
My thoughts are with the family.
