Patty grew up in the Canal Zone, Panama where she loved going to the beach with her mother for many summers. Patty was so very particular with her things that she was known as “Perfect Patty”. Once her mother had borrowed her perfume and moved it about a half inch from where Patty had it. When she got home that day she immediately yelled “who moved my perfume?” Another time Patty returned home and discovered her younger sister, Kathy, had cut off all her Barbie doll’s hair. Patty always noticed everything. She was a very caring person. Patty was always willing to help others. She was a loyal friend, kind hearted, sincere, and loving.
Patty was a very shy child. When she was eight years old her father took her to see Santa Claus. He knew she would not talk to Santa so he wrote a list of what she wanted. Every time Santa would ask her what she wanted, she would bob her head up and down.
