She was beautiful and sweet and one of the funniest people I know. I am so glad my mama found her sister and I got to know my Aunt. Rest easy and spread your big beautiful wings! I Love You Aunt Pat

Pat was a beautiful human being. A good friend and confidant. I have such high regard for her. Pat's life experiences and insights to the world around her was extraordinary. She had an incomparable no nonsense common sense. I could go on forever about Pat but you will just have to wait for the book! Lol. I will share one example of the depth of her sensibility. I had a shoulder injury and the doctor's were shuffling me around. Pat gave me a jar of horse liniment to use on my aching shoulder to relieve the pain and promote healing. "We are all mammals and aren't that much different so if it is good for horses it isn't going to hurt you" was along the lines of her advice. "And you can buy it by the gallon for a pittance of what that doctor is charging you for those cortisone shots!" I will cherish the remnants of that jar she gave me. And yes my shoulder got better. I will miss you my friend. -Don
