Pat was born on August 26, 1933 in Portsmouth, OH, and lived the majority of her life in Cincinnati. She will be forever remembered for her gift of loving hospitality, warm cookies, and open home for all. Her family was her greatest joy. Even as her memory faded, her warmth and love continued to shine through, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those around her. She will be deeply missed, and we will carry forward her love for others in our lives.

Pat fought a long, hard battle with Alzheimer’s disease for almost a decade, and we are appreciative for the loving care she received at Mason Christian Village, especially the staff in the Special Care Unit. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to an Alzheimer’s Research Association of your choice.

A celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, March 15 at 11am, Turning Point Church, 7019 Tylersville Road, West Chester, OH 45069.
