I worked with Pat - she had the most amazing laugh. Couldn't help but laugh with her. She was sunshine on a rainy day and just an all around good hearted person. I haven't seen her in years but I would know her anywhere. Rest in peace Pat - you were a delight to know, truly.
Fondly, Sam Avery

Dear Pat , it was a pleasure to have known you. I will always remember the delicious food you made at the compound pig roast. I saw the love in your eyes with all your grandchildren as they grew through the years. I will Miss You.

Pat was a soft spoken, sweet lady. Always welcomed by a smile from her with concern and care about what was going on and how was everyone doing. She has had a difficult journey these last few years, with little complaint. She struck me as a person who just took things in her stride. I know it brought her much joy the past years to have her two favorite girls with her. She loved her family and adored her grand daughter Cheyanne and her daughter Shelly. God has a plan and knew what he was doing when he sent them to live with Pat, at a time when she needed them the most. We are deeply sad and sorry for the family's loss. I know she will be very missed. God bless you Pat, God speed. "He will bear you up on eagles wings, make you shine like the sun, and hold you in the palm of His hand"

We are so heartbroken and saddened to hear of the loss of Pat, Mrs. Hart, Mom, Grammy and all that she was to so many in the community here and its many families. The true spirit of what a good hearted person really is and how many life's she touched yet without ever being far from where hear heart truly lay, home. Family was the world she loved so dearly through good and bad. Always an interesting conservation sprinkled with some witty advise and humor mixed within. Her love of plants and nature always evident. Pat was larger than life in her own tranquility. When the world loses such a rare gem of a person it fills us with profound heartache and grief. She and Dave are again united on yet another adventure together as they often would. With much sympathy and sadness may you now rest in peace Pat. Hugs to all. We are extremely saddened.
