Life is a Gift. That Gift is comprised of a body endowed with an immortal soul made to the image and likeness of God’s Spirit of Love. That Spirit must eventually return to its source. Pat’s spirit has been called to return June 21, 2026. While her spirit has entered a new life, its share of God’s Love remains as a legacy to dwell among her family, friends, colleagues, and all other beneficiaries to use as synergy for their own respective share of God’s Love.
