My sincere condolences to your family. I have found memories of Pat during our time at Central High School. We had many classes together including typing and shorthand. I’m so glad I got to see her a few years ago at our 50th reunion in Ocean City.

Bucky and Denise, I’m so sorry for your loss. I can only think of Aunt Pat as an angel called home. What a sweet, kind, loving woman you were blessed with for a wife and a mother and how wonderful heaven shared an angel with you, if even too brief a time. Aunt Pat will be missed by so many. May the Lord comfort you in your grief and bring you peace.

Pat, you will be missed by all.
She was not only a wonderful wife, she was a wonderful mother, grandmother,
sister, and great friend to many.
Now you are pain-free and in the house of our Lord.

To Buck, Denise and grandchildren,
I have learned so much through Pat’s gentle caring ways and insight in our Sorority Bible Study Classes and through knowing her at Huntingtown United Methodist Church. She is an amazing person and child of God and we were all elated in Bible Study when she rejoined us recently for a couple month on zoom. My sincere condolences go to Buck and family at the loss of someone so dear as Pat. May God be with you as you go through this most difficult time.
With Sincere Sympathy,
Theresa Trott
