Miz Pat was a very lovely lady from my neighborhood. She helped my son Benjamin find the right path to be a hard working law abiding citizen. I will always be grateful to her for what she did for us.

Ms. Pat was a wonderful, thoughtful, giving person. Never a bad word about anyone or anything. She saw redemption in everyone and had more patience than anyone I had ever met. She was a dear friend to many here at our Harahan Senior Center and we will miss her terribly. My sympathy to the many who loved her. Sincerely,
Lynn and Ms. Pat's many friends at Harahan Senior Center

I am truly shaken by this.Pat and i became sooo close all those times
she "sat for" my husband Henry, who loved her too.
We first met her Tuesdays at MandarinHouse when she
would ROLL UP to the buffet (decades ago i guess)
Then she came to 'sit' Mondays so i could go to BibleStudy.
And then there were the Ochsner times.

I always worried about Gage and
the baby and family members and about her cars
especially THIS CAR which
i called "the LSU purple people eater" .
SHE WAS THE VERY BEST CHRISTIAN AND SHE ALWAYS SET ME STRAIGHT
WHEN I NEEDED GUIDANCE! ...I LOVED HER DEARLY!!!!
And will miss her more thsn i can say!!!!!!!
Sincerely.
