Pat was a talented seamstress, knitter, quilter and avid reader. During her life she was always active and enjoyed gardening, canning, swimming and exercising. Her special passion was travelling with Ed in the United States and abroad. They cherished seeing friends and relatives during their many trips back to Pennsylvania for holidays, reunions and weddings.
In her retirement, Pat volunteered at the Baby Pantry at St. Anthony Church in Mancelona, MI and was a member of the Torch Area Quilters Guild.
Pat spent the last ten years of her life at The Reflections Memory Care in Battle Creek, MI. Pat and her family appreciated the kind and loving care that was provided by every single caregiver every single day during her residence. Pat's family also wishes to acknowledge the wonderful care and support received from the staff at Grace Hospice.
A private family Mass of Christian Burial has been celebrated at St. Joseph Catholic Church and Pat has been interred at Fort Custer National Cemetery.
