I was extremely saddened to learn of Patty's death. We were classmates in high school and roommates in Arlington, VA for a short time until she moved back to Carmichaels. I saw her a few times over the years, but not for a very long time until my uncle's funeral (her aunt had married my uncle). We then reconnected and shared numerous Facebook posts over the past few years. RIP Patty!

I remember fondly Patty's visit to California when Jennifer was at Stanford. My mother, Marie Goodish, enjoyed her conversation with Patty when she visited Pennsylvania. Special thoughts to Jonathan, Jennifer, and Jason.
