Patricia loved her family with all her heart. She was a kind and gentle soul, always willing to lend a helping hand and always had a smile and a hug for anyone who wanted one.

No matter how she was feeling, her joy for life always shined through and kept pushing her. She will be missed terribly by all who loved her.
