Pat was born in Brooklyn, New York and spent her formative years in Manchester, Massachusetts where she met and later married the late Raymond S.

Pat and Ray spent 12 years living in northern Virginia where she worked in retail before moving to Boothbay in 1990. While in Boothbay she worked for Key Bank. Pat was artistic and especially loved animals. Perhaps her closest friends were her dogs, who were, Hector, Nelson, Byron, Yojo, Fanny, Zoe, Pewee and Moxie.  

Much appreciation goes to her dear friends Diane and Wes Witham and Richard and Shirley Brown. Contributions in Pat’s name may be made to the Boothbay Baptist Church or Siesta Sanctuary (for birds) in Harmony, Maine 04942.
