A graduate of Riverside High School, Patricia worked in the Child Support Office for Chatham County for twenty-four years.

I met Pat last year at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Ceremony in DC. I was honoring my husband and she was honoring her brother. We talked a lot over the weekend and stayed in touch thru FB. I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. Dana Bartoe

My husband and I were so sad to hear of Pat's passing. She was such a kind woman with a fantastic sense of humor. Though our time spent with her at Corvette Club was short, we really appreciated how welcome she made us feel. She will be truly missed. We will continue to keep her family in our thoughts and prayers.

I knew Pat from the many Corvette cruises and meetings that we attended jointly over the past five years. I particularly remember the last Christmas party we both attended in December 2018. I sat at the same table with her and Bill, and we talked about everything you could imagine. It was a great evening. She was a really good friend, and I will miss her greatly. I must express my deepest sympathies to Bill and the rest of her wonderful family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Pat was such a delightful person. It’s an every Sunday when I saw her she would ask about my husband and how he was doing. She was always friendly outgoing and so kind. I remember her always for her gentle spirit and loving ways.
