Although I did not see Patricia often, when we did get together I always enjoyed our conversations. She was a kind soul who we lost far too soon. I recall being with her at the hospital when she had to make a decision about whether we should keep Aunt Lucia on life support. Though the doctors were clearly indicating that it was time to let her go, Patricia struggled to make this decision. In that moment I became aware of the depth of her compassion for others.

Jonathan and Mary Ellen, so very sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. I knew her through Sacred Heart Parish and of course parent teacher interviews when I taught at Our Lady of Lourdes School. She was a lovely lady and I enjoyed our working together at CWL functions. God bless and my prayers and thoughts are with you and your Dad. Andrea Suski

Dear Mary-Ellen, So sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. Please accept my condolences to you and your family. I didn't really know your mom, but having worked with you at the Ranch if she was anything like her daughter she must have been a very kind and caring person. Warm thoughts to all, Ian (aka Maestro)
