I had the good fortune to work with Pat in the Lab from 1976-2011. She was great fun. The picture is from a Lab happy hour that ended at Candlelight or Klocke's 1976.

I loved Pat when I worked at CGH. She was a sassy soul who knew how to articulate the good and the bad without any hesitation. I am sorry for your loss.

My condolences to Pat's children and grand children. Pat was a classmate throughout St. Mary's and Newman. She was a proud member of Newman's Class of 1958, and would meet for many of our monthly Class Lunches at the Railside, prior to the COVID-19 in March. I will miss her friendliness very much. Rest in Peace dear friend. You will be greatly missed. Until we meet again. Rosemary Chapinski Pizarro

I loved Pat. She was a spicy thing. She would tell you what she was thinking in a no nonsense manner. I truly enjoyed talking with her in the Lab or at lunch. She was honest and had a great insight on many subjects. She was special and will be missed. God Bless her family. Her memories are yours forever. Norm Deets
