The Hargraves and  the Klays go way back and I ask that Judy and Mark please accept my sincere condolences for your loss.  You have each walked your own walk and Pat did too.  I know you will find comfort in the many stories  which a tight family like yours share after such a loss.  The photo you chose is beautiful and full of the love of life that Pat exuded.  My sister Carol kept us up to date through her long friendship with Pat, and we Klays will continue to remember Pat with fondness. Love, Julie

My deepest condolences to Pat’s family and loved ones.
Just reading and knowing all that she was involved with all the time, proves what a go-getter she was and how she loved life.

Rest in piece sweet lady.

From sixth grade at Dale Mabry, all through Coleman, Plant, USF as well as all of the reunions, Pat has been like a sister to me.  So vibrant, energetic, positive and full of life,  you couldn’t help but be joyful around her!  She always lifted me and everyone around her up!
So talented, youthful, fun loving and caring!  
You left us way too early!  We are all really going to miss you!

A “shooting star” 💫  ~  bright light, full of energy & powerful, unique, beautiful, real… and gone too soon. You will be missed and remembered Pat. 💖

Such a loss.  Judy and Mark, my thoughts and love are with you and all that knew Pat and were close to her.  She was a truly wonderful, delightful person.  I knew all the Hargraves since early childhood.  Many beach travels to Indian Rocks with our families together.  So many wonderful memories.  Hugs and kisses....

I can't believe she's gone.  She was one of a kind - fun loving, talented, and spirited, with a style all of her own.

Being around Pat  was like a breath of fresh air & a burst of sunshine at the same time. I loved her energy, positive attitude & caring spirit.  I will miss you Pat. ❤️

Judy and Mark, My deepest sympathy for the loss of your wonderful, talented, fun-loving  sister. Pat was my hair stylist for 45 years after moving to Tampa at 22.   45 years of sharing our lives, big moments and small ones. I considered her a close friend and I am missing her so much!

It's funny that I don't have any photos to share. They are all in my memory- in a million experiences of childhood.
Maybe it's because we were always being mischievous together. 
Well, it was mostly Pat, with me following along! We swam on the swim team together from the time we were about 8 yrs. old up through high school. We had sleepovers, we were chatterboxes, she was always larger than life. I helped coach she when she was an award-winning diver. She was always bright-eyed and energetic. When I last saw her, a couple of months ago, she was no different. Full of plans...
We had just become reconnected after a life of different paths. 
Fly high, Pat. You lived life on your terms. You will be missed!

Pat was 100% full of life and always on the go. I never had a phone call with her that lasted more than 60 seconds. She was always joyful and ALWAYS in a hurry.  I think she just loved what she did and she loved the people in her life so much that she was always serving others.  We'll miss her but will never forget her energy and joy.

Knowing Pat I was fortunate to see so many facets of her life.  What impressed me the most was her work ethic.  She was a talented hair stylist, who built a big clientele, which enabled her to open her own studio.  Pat was always upbeat, positive, dressed from head to toe, and just plain fun! She will be missed, but has left a permanent mark of accomplishments in this world.

So sad.  Such a fun loving Panther who always marched…. Primarily to her own tune.  She will be missed by all whose life she blessed.

Pat was truly special.  She will be missed.

Pat was 100% full of life and always on the go. I never had a phone call with her that lasted more then 60 seconds. She was always joyful and ALWAYS in a hurry. I think she just loved what she did and she loved the people in her life so much that she was always serving others.
Will miss her but will never forget her energy and joy
