Dear Family,
So sorry for your loss. Pat was Probate Clerk extraordinaire and she served our community in various & sundry ways. She most definitely will be remember for her Carmel cakes. Every year, Pat baked a couple of these cakes for the annual Chamber of Commerce Banquet & Auction. It was nothing for her cake to go to the highest bidder for over $100 each. Thoughts and prayers for you all. We miss her too.

I worked in the courthouse for a number of years and observed how Pat greeted each person who needed her help. She knew almost everyone, their family members and certainly where they lived. People trusted Pat because they knew how much she cared about them and the people of Lee County. She has been and will be missed. May she be resting in peace.
