Pat loved to spend time with her family and could often be found in the kitchen baking up a favorite family meal or sharing a treasured family recipe. She enjoyed a long career as a registered nurse and even in retirement carried on her passion for helping others and caring for the sick. She loved to travel and many of her fondest trips were to the beaches of Cape Cod, Rhode Island or the mountains of Maine. Pat enjoyed genealogy and spent time gathering data to update ancestry websites as well as mapping out her own heritage and Irish roots. Pat also enjoyed the quiet moments at home watching UCONN basketball, reading, knitting or visiting with her grandpups.
