One of the nicest ladies I've ever known. Our families were close in Durango, and about 3 years ago I met up with Pat again in Englewood. I am so sad to hear of her passing! Carrie, Annie, I love you girls!

I was lucky enought to know Pat when I was the Executive Director of the DAAR in the '80's. She was a warm and lovely human being. And she knew how to laugh! A very important quality. My sincere condolences to Pat's family.
