Pat enjoyed spending time with her girlfriends going to exercise class, thrifting, and seeing live music. She liked helping people by volunteering at the South Rock Island Township. She loved traveling with family and friends, going on many trips over the years. Most important to Pat was her family. She took every opportunity she could to see them. From birthday parties and cookouts or just watching the Bears. She was a devoted grandmother lovingly known as "Grandma Hat". She loved sharing in the things that made her grandchildren happy. She looked forward to their musical performances, plays and sporting events. She watched movies and video games and took countless walks. She went above and beyond. Her grandchildren were the light of her life.
