I loved my Aunt Pat. I always felt so happy and lucky to be able to spend time with her, my Uncle Freddie and all my cousins. My aunt knew how to tell a story, keep the room laughing, and was always the life of the party. I´ll miss our telephone catch ups, her kind words and all her helpful advice.

Dear Jinks Family,
I am very sorry to hear of Pat's passing.
Bill and I so enjoyed visiting with her, especially in North Carolina.
I looked forward to her sharing family stories and an Old Fashioned while Bill would take his afternoon nap.
Pat was a loving sister to Bill and always made time to call and check in on him. I know he appreciated those calls.
She was a special lady and will be missed.
Love, Linda
