We couldn't have picked a nicer mother-in-law, grandmother and great grandmother for our daughter Stephanie and children Ben and Rachel and their families than Pat. When we could travel to Longton, for special occasions and birthday parties we always enjoyed visiting with Bob, Pat and the Dowell families. Everyone who knew Pat knew she was quite the prankster/jokester and story teller about the antics of the kids growing up. Birthday parties were always a fun time for the grandkids because grandma Pat usually came with a big gift bag. It was usually the last gift opened because Pat would have wrapped individually each article in it with gift wrap or newspaper and tape. It was always packed with a few practical things but mostly packed with snacks, silly things and most fun of all was those fun canisters of silly string that kids had fun shooting everywhere. What a fun grandmother she was. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at the loss of someone so special in your lives. May memories sustain you through the difficult times. Lill and Rich Swartz
