Patricia was an excellent homemaker. She loved to cook, bake and clean. She pickled and canned vegetables and fruit making sure her family was well fed through the winter months. She was a very good seamstress and made most of her children’s clothes from one pattern which she adjusted. She loved flowers especially pansies and red roses.
Her greatest joy was spending time with her family, playing cards.
