Throughout Patricia's successful career she took advantage of many educational opportunities to advance into management. She gained many friends along the way whom she loved and adored very much. Patricia always encouraged others to advance in their career including her Baby Sister, Kattina. There was a time when Patricia accompanied a young employee on a road trip to Houston as an opportunity to advance his career from Operator Services to an Outside Technician, where he too retired from AT&T.
