    We had the good fortune to call Pat our friend for the last,10 years. She was some kind of amazing….a total warrior and a loyal friend. Lots of great times were had in our home which included Pat and Chris.
    Many fun events at their place in Tudor.
    Real sadness comes to mind when we think of not seeing our pal anymore ..
    From Martin ….goodbye chicken

    I so wish I had had the opportunity to meet this amazing lady in person. Thankfully the wonders of modern technology allowed me to talk to her and see her wonderful smile. Her courage was an inspiration. Love to all.

    I’ve been thinking about over the many years, Pat’s dry humor, especially as it relates to our shared hobby of radio control. On occasion, after a faux pas, Pat would not hold back with a snicker and a poignant comment at us little boys and our little toys :^D

    It was always noteworthy to me how Pat carried herself and endured, choosing instead to engage and exercise humor at every turn despite the complications from arthritis that permeated.

    Because of her fine character and our ongoing and great “candid interactions”, I always looked forward to seeing and talking with Pat. For me, its last summer; the three of us lazily sitting outside in the afternoon sun…gabbing :^)

    Always here for you Chris 🙏
