Pat, or as I've always called her, Patty and I go way back! She was a beautiful bridesmaid in our wedding! We kept in touch through college and when our children were born. We reconnected at our 50th reunion and have been talking almost weekly. Selfishly, I will miss our talks and laughter. She , for the most part went through this long medical ordeal with humor and grace. She is back with Barry and that makes me feel happy. Heartfelt sympathy to David and Leslie. She was so proud of you two!

Pat was always "Patty" to me! We go way back! She was a beautiful bridesmaid at our wedding . We kept in touch in college as well as when our children were born. We reconnected  in person at our highschool reunion. We spoke almost weekly since then. We tried to make each other laugh. She was full of good humor even through this long medical ordeal. I am deeply saddened by her passing and selfishly will miss our talks. Prayers for Leslie and David. She was proud of you both. Now she's with Dad!

My deepest sympathy to Pat's family and friends. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. I worked with Pat at the MS Society for many years. She was so compassionate and dedicated to helping others. She was always willing to lend a hand no matter how busy she was. I always enjoyed talking with her and working on programs with her...she always had me laughing. It was a privelage to know her and work with her.

Pat will always be"Patty" to me! We go way back! I remember well Friday nights in highschool watching old movies and eating gobs of chips and dips. Kept in touch all through college as well as later when our children were born. She was a beautiful bridesmaid in our wedding. We reconnected at 50th reunion and talked often especially during this last chapter of her life. Selfishly, I will miss our talks. I know though, that she was just worn out from all she endured with, for the most part, good humor. She is now with Barry and smiling again. Prayers for Leslie and David. She was so proud of you two !  Nancy Reinert (Fort Mill, SC

Pat was a delightful person who always had a smile on her face. We started the same week at the MS Society and met in Denver. Many years later we worked at the same chapter. Pat had such a wonderful drive to help those who lived with a more progressive form of MS. Her work with those who lived in nursing homes was a model for others to follow. Pat will be missed. From Mike Elkow

I have so many memories of Pat.  She held my hand when I was first diagnosed.  She was my first link to the society and one of the reasons why I pay back my gratitude by volunteering for NMSS. She was warm, compassionate and so helpful. I am blessed to have known her.

The staff at the National MS Society have lost a friend and colleague. Pat had worked for the National MS Society in the Paramus office for nearly 20 years. Pat was the Director of Services, and through the years, she worked on just about every single program, service and event. However, the support groups were Pat's main focus, she really enjoyed going out and meeting people with MS and their families. I was honored to have Pat as my mentor when I began at the Chapter, she trained me and showed me the ropes. It was evident to me and everyone else, how dedicated she was in her work with the Society. The thing I will remember most about Pat was her infectious laugh, and boy did she love a good laugh! Our thoughts and prayers go out to her children, Leslie and David - hoping they find peace and comfort at this difficult time. May Pat and her husband Barry be blessed in their afterlife together.

My deepest sympathy to all of Pat's family.....she was such a lovely, courageous person, and I was blessed to have her as a friend for MANY years.....she will be greatly missed. May you find peace and comfort in the days ahead.
