Growing up, Pat was truly a second mom to me. I will so cherish all of the wonderful memories. She always remembered how fond I was of mashed potatoes =).
My son, Marco, and I send our love and prayers. My heart goes out to my best friend Linda, and to all of you at this very difficult time. May the memories of years past carry you through.
