Aunt Patty and her fun-loving, sweet spirit will be so deeply missed! She taught me how to play so many card games, what friendship was though her relationship with Mary, how to embrace life while she was single and how to travel well at any age! I loved getting Patty’s annual Christmas cards and how fabulous the pictures were of her and her travels, and this inspired me to send out some of my own this year. I am so fortunate to have had her example in my life of how to love people, her friends, free time, and the Lord well. I pray when I am her age, I have such close friendships still like she did with Mary. ❤️

We enjoyed time with Patty whenever we visited our Aunt Mary over the past many years. Since we're from Minnesota, they wanted us to love Southern California as much as they did.  Here we are on a bus to Santa Monica Beach in 2017! Patty and Mary were always together. ❤️  Tony and Connie

Pat was one of my favorite people during the years I lived at 620 Kenwood. She was a wonderful, upbeat person who thought about  and helped others whenever she could. When I moved out in 2019, she was still the reliable driver for many of her friends.

She will be missed by many.
