Watching the sun rise over the rim at “the Ranch” with hot cup of coffee on her deck

Watching that same sun set behind the mountains

Smith Rock

Laughing til you cry or can’t breathe or both

Family campouts at The Cove

Going to craft fairs & finding the perfect gift for ourselves and buying it for each other for …later

Watching her grandchildren do …anything

Her rescue dogs, Shadow and Callie (thanks Karrie)

Shopping for a good bargain with best shopping buddy, Cynda

Singing! Singing off key yes, but singing out loud, even in the audience of the movie theater

Cruising in the sun with her prince charming, best friend and husband John. Finding new adventures on those cruises with adopted family, Harv & Cynda – oh, the adventures they found.

Reading, Hot fudge, Hot dogs, Rice Crispy treats, Twinkie’s

Loving - Mostly Loving her family and if you were a friend, you were family…

These were many of her favorite things. Patty’s love and capacity to forgive and find happiness was unlimited. Her light and laughter is not extinguished by leaving this earth, it is only magnified brighter within our hearts.
