She also enjoyed spending time outdoors, camping, fishing, and tending to her garden. She was an artistic person and was a talented drawer and painter. Animals were a big passion of hers, especially dogs, and she gave much of time volunteering at local animal shelters and donating money to animal relief organizations. Above all, she loved to spend time with her family. Patricia was a ‘down to earth’ person, and enjoyed the simple things in life, like having a cup of coffee on the deck watching the birds. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
