Dear Pat and Family,
Our condolences on the loss of your Mother. She was a wonderful person to me when I worked with her at Jesco (John Deere on Rt 17 Ramsey NJ) back in 1981. Our little time together we had fun and she taught me lots! I was a senior at MHS and on the work study program and she was a great person to work for/with. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Kathi and George Scherer, Mahwah NJ

To my dear Mom. The most incredible human being I have ever known. On top of that, you ARE my mom. You enabled me to love, to care, to put others before me. I really tried and continue to try to do this, but sometimes I fail. But, you never failed with this virtue. Incredible, Virginia. I love you with all of my heart. Pat.
