Pat was an avid animal lover. Sometimes, jokingly, loving them more than humans. She dedicated many years to serving various animal organizations in local and surrounding counties. Pat gave a home to many needy animals and spent years training and showing dogs. She was a kind soul and gave selflessly of herself to others.

Pat was a champion for all types of animals. Over the past few years, she felt a special pride in the wonderful non-profit organization her granddaughter Olivia started. One of Pat’s last comments to Jim was that he sponsor one of the young people participating in Olivia’s organization.
