Patt married her soul mate Jim Dick on September 7, 1968 in Indiana. In 1974 Jim and Patt moved to Michigan where they raised 4 beautiful children. She has always stayed active throughout the years working as a medical receptionist and raising her family that continues to grow. A parishioner at St. Kenneth Catholic church for 20 years, she became a Stephen Minister and would touch many lives throughout her career. She enjoyed having her whole family together and would often plan trips that everyone could enjoy. Her greatest accomplishment in life would be her family that she will be missed dearly by.
