Sorry this note is so very very late - but, I was just informed of this, the saddest moment in a long time. Words.. Not sure I have enough or the right ones. We both graduated in the class at HHS 57' My fondest memory.. I would walk to school - Pat would drive. Without fail, she would pick me up and start talking and make me feel welcome. She had a very warm way about her. Lost track of her after school & military - but, she was always somewhere in my mind.

I took this polaroid of Pat around the mid 90's when we use to fly to Rio and Buenos Aires. Pat and I would always fly up in first class while the rest of the gang (Elizabeth, Barbara, and later on Jan joined us) would work in coach. I would always call Pat on New Year's Eve and Mothers Day; she would say I was the son she didn't have :) I could talk to Patricia just about anything, and she never judged me; I often called her for advice, and she was always helpful. I last visited Patricia on January 19th of this year and went out for lunch. Patricia had a fervor for excitement coupled with a gentle loving side...I will miss our friendship.
