Patricia was part of our group we fondly called the "Magnificent Seven". Seven women, nurses, ranging in age from 50's to mid 70's. ( 30's to mid 50's in the beginning). At least once a year we would get together for a girls weekend at Linda Munsinger's lake home in Park Rapids. A weekend of fun and laughter. Patricia was a quiet soul but with her dry sense of humor she could get us laughing until we were exhausted. Sometimes you could find us sitting around the breakfast table in our pajamas at 3 in the afternoon, just talking, laughing and enjoying the company. Patricia (she didn't like to be called Pat), you will be dearly missed. Till we meet again, please save us some room at the table.

Patricia was a member of our little group of friends, who called ourselves the "Magnificent Seven". Seven women, nurses, ranging in age from 50's in to the mid 70's. ( We met when those ages were 30's to mid 50's)We all just clicked and became good friends. We'd get together a couple of times a year, usually at Linda Munsinger's lake home in Park Rapids. A weekend of good food, friendship and laughter. Pat seemed to be a quiet soul, but she had a dry sense of humor that could get us all laughing until we were exhausted. Many times we would sit around the breakfast table in our pajamas talking and laughing until 3 in the afternoon. Good times, good friends and Pat was a big part of that. She will be missed dearly and will always hold a place in our hearts. Till we meet again Patricia (she didn't like to be called Pat). Your journey is over. Save a place at the table for the rest of us.

I am so sad to hear about Pat. One of the kindest people I have ever known . Best memory is of her and Jeff coming to "The Angus" and sitting by the bar schmoozing with me while I worked. Always lots of laughter. Take care of each other Bairds! You are in our thoughts and prayers.
With love, Brandon and Annette Nyberg
