I enjoyed working with Pat at BSC. She was a spunky little lady that always had a kind word for others. She will be greatly missed. My condolences to her family
Pat was my step mom. She was a tender soul. I have many good memories. Good family times. She was very devoted to her son Brandon my brother and my niece Tricia. My brother and I have many good memories with her and our dad. I will cherish the pictures and memories I have. One memory I have that she laughed and laughed when she went into White Castle and told them she needed 500 hamburgers to send to her daughter. The lost dog by her house that I fell in love with and wanted. So she brought him to the airport put him on the plane to Denver, Co. where I lived. We named him Bear. He threw up in her car but she just laughed. She will be missed by so many. She’s also having a wonderful reunion with her family up in heaven. You will never be forgotten and so loved mom. R. I. P. See you one day in heaven. ❤️
Pat was a very dear friend. I worked with her for several years at Boston. Such a sweet lady. She loved white cake, like wedding cake. One year our coworker,Lisa made her a cake. However, we made her another cake too. It was a kitty litter cake; she was shocked, but then we gave her the real cake. She took it in good humor; one of our memories as coworkers.
Pat was a beautiful and caring person
Thank you.
Yes she was.
