Pat was both a mentor and a friend in our Zone 7 group and a great support when I worked at the Calumet Park Public Library and the Tinley Park Public Library. I used to tease her that she was the only Mc in Orland Park who wasn't running for public office. Her love of life and her family were always her priorities and evident in all she did and talked about. May all your memories bring you comfort and peace.

I just want to say how sorry I am for your loss. Your mom and dad where such a part of our family . The fun they had driving to many places to vacation together. The Talking Heads bridge group and the hours of laughing and talking in our living room instead of
Playing bridge. This the name of the group. Your mom and dad are together again along with my parents. I am sure they are all having a great time. Love you all and our prayers are with you. Love the Murphy's.. Sean, Martin , Margie and Dermott...xoxo
