Part of me lost and I did not even know that it was missing.
Like some gift book set aside unread, then picked up at a later time, and found to be exactly what I needed to read, you appeared to call a name I did not know was mine until I heard it.
On the last evening of her life, Pat gave a reading for Just Poets in Pittsford, NY. A packed audience witnessed and heard her read from her book "Synchronicity," just released that evening. She treated all who attended to an amazing voyage in words and personality. Her poems made us laugh, reminisce, reflect and skirt the border of tears. Ever the poet, she left us with an experience we will all treasure forever.
50% of the proceeds from the purchase of either of Pat's two books will be donated to Isaiah House, a hospice in Rochester where Pat spent many hours comforting the dying.
