Patty enjoyed working in her flower gardens, feeding “her” birds and geese.  She loved singing, dancing and especially listening to Glenn Miller Orchestra and The Big Bands. She loved her family and spending time with them, her door was always open! Patty never knew a stranger, if she met you then you was considered her friend.  She and her friend Bob delivered many food baskets that they put together themselves for Veterans and residents of Carroll County. If Patty saw you were in need and she could, she would fill that need.
