    She loved young people. She demonstrated that love by functioning many years as Girl Scout leader, Sunday school teacher (clowning) and church nursery worker. She was most recently deeply involved in placing foreign exchange students from around the world, helping two dozen students find homes for this school year.

    Pat was a totally committed and loving mother, wife and friend. She is and will be deeply missed. She now, by faith in Christ, waits peacefully in eternity for those she left behind.
