I went to high school with Pat and lived “down the street” from her. She was always a kind person and talented athlete. I am happy to hear she was able to fulfill some of her sailing dreams. I can truly see her doing that. Rest well, Pat.

I had just met Pat this year, introduced by fellow Sailors. She was a kindred spirit, whose company I very much enjoyed. My condolences to her family. Fair Winds and following Seas, Pat.

I worked with Pat for several years at AT&T in New Jersey. But I don’t remember her for her work. I remember her for her integrity, and courage to speak up for what she thought was right. Whenever she came to me for help on a problem, her approach was well-reasoned, and communicated clearly, with an abiding commitment to her position. Her passion for living her best life was obvious! Reading of her time in Florida since, I’m sad that her time was so short, but happy that it was so fulfilling.
