My condolences to The Tomaszewski family, I was shocked and saddened when I heard Pat had been ill and passed away. Pat and I had a good long distance working relationship , she was easy and pleasant to work with, and she will be missed. I pray God will bring comfort and peace to your family and your hearts during this difficult time. Rest in Peace Pat.

Pat is my cousin. We grew up together as children but seldom saw each other as adults.

She was named Patricia after her mother, but I knew her as Georgette. I was named Joseph after my father, but she knew me as Lynn, I guess that's how our parents prevented confusion with the names.

I will always remember her as being cheerful and at times quite funny. Our fathers were brothers and great friends. Because of that, I am fortunate to have shared many fun times as children.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family.

My deepest sympathy to the Tomaszewski family. Pat was such a sweet woman. I worked with her for many years and she was always so helpful, friendly and happy. I enjoyed any opportunity I got to have a conversation on a personal basis with her. She loved sharing stories about her family especially her grandchildren. I know your hearts are breaking at this moment, I pray that you heal from the pain of this tremendous loss and are fortunate enough lean on each other during this difficult time.

In deepest Sympathy

Kids and Frank, sometimes when passions run high as you know they do amongst us children , ( feelings that are not understood by others )does not undermine the feelings and memories that used to be while we were very young , the most tender memory I recall and have remembered all my life of when she removed my ankle socks that my mother made wear to my confirmation while all of the other girls were wearing nylons ( oh my! the end of the world for me!) on the way to the church as me and Pat went ahead of the others, I was crying so hard she took off the anklets and put them in her purse (of course I knew the looks I was going to get going down the procession aisle from our mother but it was so well worth it ! )The daggers that came out of my mother's eyes!!!d I was so thankful to my sister for helping me)! I remember her sitting in front of the television screaming and pulling out her hair at the Beatles! I was so young I didn't have many memories of those times. I hope she will have many more wonderful times if she awaits the time she can meet with her children and grandchildren and Frank to have memories everlasting again( sleep well Pat) no more bad all good

Jenny, Frank, and family: There are no words to console what you have all gone through this past week alone. There are not enough hugs to ease the pain. Find comfort in the time you had, the memories you cherish, and know that others will forever remember your mom fondly. With all my hugs, love, prayers -
