History
Patricia could best be described as patient, loving, good natured, happy. Her family meant everything to her. Patricia was very supportive and attended as many of her children and grandchildrens sporting events as possible. She always looked forward to the time her family spent while running in marathons. Patricia was especially proud of her Irish Heritage. She enjoyed watching educational TV. If her TV was not already tuned in to a sporting event it was always set at WXXI. Patricia enjoyed computers, hiking, camping, back packing, biking, gardening and the art of cultivating Bonsai trees. She also enjoyed producing Marquetry items made with wood. To her accomplishment she created many of these items with the use of just one hand. Towards the end of her life Patricia befriended the son of one of her caregivers by the name of Tre.
