Cathy & I were saddened to just recently learn of Pat’s passing.
We had many fun dinners and trips with Ed & Pat.
She was a lovely lady and the perfect complement to Ed.
We miss them both but happy that they are together again.

We recently received news of your mom's passing and wanted you to know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers. We felt so blessed to have met and lived so close to your parents in Park Ridge. My aunt, Sr. Marie Therese Poliquin and my mom made the connection and the rest was history! We so enjoyed our lunches, dinners and visits with your parents since we moved here. We so loved to hear the stories of all their adventures and our children really enjoyed visiting with them, as well. We will greatly miss Pat but she is now together again with your Dad in union with Our Lord.

I was very sorry to hear of your mother's passing.
I grew up with your Dad (Ed) up in Duluth, Minnesota. Our parents were close friends. Upon meeting Pat, she was always so warm, genuine and friendly. She loved a good laugh! She will be remembered fondly by those that had the good fortune to know her.
