The family would like to thank amazing neighbors, Eleanor Ackerson, Judy Merrill, Maddie Kankus, Nate and Sue Noto, Scott Kay, Linda and Debbie Jay, and Chris and Rhoda DeSanto for their friendship. Special thanks to Casey, Patsy, Courtney, and staff of CareFirst for the care they provided to Pat these past few months. Pat loved sitting on her front porch with a cup of tea or glass of wine and providing the neighborhood dogs with treats. Fred and Marge, you will have to get your treats from Judy now. In her younger years, Pat and her sisters spent many weekends at the lake, frequenting the "Switz". She was an avid reader, enjoyed completing the crossword puzzle every day and playing cards with friends. Pat was proud of her Irish heritage (100% DNA verified) and enjoyed being with family most of all. From the Annual Guinane reunions to hosting the annual Thanksgiving dinner, Pat loved to cook, bake, and entertain, and was known for her baked beans and apple pie. Pat will be remembered as a strong, independent woman who set a great example for her children and grandchildren and always put the needs of others above her own. The Ladies Division of the Ancient Order of Hibernians will meet at McInerny Funeral Home on Tuesday, October 25th at 6:45 p.m., to conduct a service for our sister Patricia.
