Pat was one of those people who you fell in love with as soon as you met her. Her personality was simply electrifying, always having a story that was entertaining , laughing as she told it with this sparkle in her eye . She had an eye for fashion always looking stylish and stunning. Certainly loved the finer things of life but also incredibly generous, empathetic to the plight of others…
In a word….she is timeless!
