Patti was truly a joy to be around with and work with. She went about her work everyday without a bad thing to say of anyone or anything. A truly good person who liked to kid around a little bit. Terri, so sorry for you and Kendra and Jimmy for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

So terribly saddened to learn of Patti's passing. She was an excellent worker but much more important was a gentle, kind , and warm human being. My deepest condolences to Terri and her entire family, may God watch over Patti forever.

My sincere condolences to Patti's entire family. Patti was a hard worker, friend to all, and just a real "good egg", and will be missed by many. I was eagerly looking forward to getting together with her and her sisters once we could safely get out. Now, I struggle to believe and to grasp the fact that she is gone. I can't even just call or text her---ever again. I hope heaven is good to her. She deserves it.

May the angels wrap their wings around you all as you find comfort in her beautiful memories

I miss what seemed to me my big sister. Working with you for so many years was an absolute pleasure. Patti always treated everyone with kindness. Always on the receiving end of all our practical jokes but she would find small ways to get us back. Love you Patti. Finally some rest my friend.

Patti was one of the kindest gentlest people I’ve ever met. Working with her nearly every day for 16 years. I never heard her once say anything bad about anyone (even when they might have had it coming) Patti treated everyone with respect and kindness. She had a great sense of humor and Laughed easily and often at the sometimes absurd happenings at work and life. Patti touched all our lives and made each day a little better. A little more bearable. Nothing is the same since she left We all miss her greatly
