Pat was such a fierce fighter when her disease struck. Though frail in appearance, she set an example for all of us
to follow. She truly "ran the good race" and we will remember her with love. Sending heartfelt prayers for comfort to Deborah, who faithfully cared for both her parents in their final days.
