Patricia would like to be remembered for her personal legacy. She enriched so many people’s lives- friends, family, loved ones and even strangers. Passing on her deeply rooted and cherished values was important to her. Her accomplishments, beliefs, actions and guidance she demonstrated made others’ lives meaningful and fruitful. For those who were blessed to have known her, knew she had a contagious laugh, one that melted your heart and warmed your soul. Her welcoming presence she embraced was apparent. She willingly and enthusiastically extended herself and her home to anyone in need, with no questions asked. She always went above and beyond for others to make sure their needs and wants were undividedly met without consideration of how it might have any impact on herself. Her life was so beautifully lived, it deserves to be beautifully remembered and celebrated. Who she was at her core is her eternal gift to others. Leaving her life story is her way to honor generations before her and showing respect to present generations and those to come.
