I am soooo sorry to hear of Patty's passing. I often thought about her as I drove past her house. I missed her voice in choir. We'd sit next to each other and would do voice "checks" on each other subconsciously. She always had a smile on her face and had a gentle soft voice. Her laugh and smile could pull anyone out of a dreary sad situation.
We have another Angel in heaven watching over us. Pat and Taka are together once again......I can imagine them watching over us all.
Aloha my haole sister.....you will be forever in my heart! Lianne Chang, MD/RPT

Pat and I go back decades to our time together in Louisville. I remember riding out the April 3, 1974 tornado at her apartment. She was a gracious host and very kind. We most recently reconnected on a trip my husband and I made to Hawaii in 2019. I am so sorry to learn of her death although I knew she was ill. Her loss makes me very sad. She will be missed by her friends and family.

My sincerest sympathies. I worked at the Corps but did not really work a lot with your mother. All those times that I did interact with her, I found her to be warm, sincere and professional. I know she will be missed by her ohana. God Bless your family. Those little sayings or mannerisms your mom had that your family unknowingly uses is her legacy and a reminder that she has not left your thoughts.
