Pat's nickname was "Specs". Her quote in the yearbook was by John Cowper Paury's: "To live as fully, as completely as possible is the true aim of life".
This quote gives us comfort to know that the quality of one's life is more important than the quantity. I pray you are at peace in knowing you fulfilled your aim. God bless.
