To hear this sad news this morning (Saturday) brought a flood of tears and a lot of memories to mind. I am so glad I got to spend some time with her at our reunion. I will be thinking of her throughout the next few days and will be with you all that attend her wake and funeral in spirit if in not in body. I will always remember her. Patti had a true spirituality, a gift of love and life, a good soul and a good word for most everyone. She will be missed by so many of us but especially by those of you who were fortunate enough to spend time with her through the years. My heart and thoughts and prayers are with you and her. Love, Joyce

Patty was a very special friend to me. She was the kindest person always thinking of others before herself.She called me quite often to put someone on the prayer chain on the internet. But, she never asked for prayers for herself. I worked with Patty in the Rosary Altar Society for many years. May she rest in peace. Amen
