Pat you been a great neighbor and friend you will be missed. 

Pat was a very good boss, sweet stern but sweet, I’m sure she will be missed by many♥️

I have known Pat for roughly 50 years. I worked for her at the North Suburban Facility and, when she moved on, we continued our friendship. She and Joe came to my wedding, and then we lost touch. Years passed, we both retired from the Postal Service and then my phone rang and it was Beverly Robinson asking if I would like to go to lunch with Pat, Beverly's daughter, Ronnie and her. Of course I said yes, which restarted our friendships. We met for lunch once a month for a few years. Bev would bring Pat out, and I would bring her home, with a stop or two on the way. Pat was so much a part of my life, a true friend. I have such nice memories with Pat, going to Wal Mart, taking her to doctor's appointments, picking up the coin sets she so loved giving to her family at Christmas, and just going for a ride. We talked about so many things in our lives, our families, our problems, so many things. Covid stopped my visits, and I was hoping that we could see each other again, even though I knew I would not be seeing the same Pat I had before.  I, truly, believe Pat is happy now with that smile of hers sharing eternity with "her Joe" and Karen, still I will miss her. Love you Pat, and God bless. 

A loving and dear friend, who will be missed.

I remember Pat as an incredibly strong supervisor  with an equally incredibly kind side.  She was an excellent supervisor and I enjoyed working for her.  Pat and some of the other ladies always watched out for me when I first started. My fondest memories are when Pat and other North Suburban 'old timers'  had lunch with my mom.  My mom loved those get togethers.  That entire group of ladies holds a special place in my heart.
