I will miss Patty’s kindness, her sense of humor and her smile. She was a beautiful lady both inside and out.
Heartfelt sympathy to Bill and Family and the Ferguson family who were neighbors growing up in Marcus Hook. Pat was a devoted and caring mother and community leader always willing to assist others. Pat’s legacy will live on in her family and those who knew her.

To the family, my condolences. Patty was my next door neighbor until 1963 when I left for the Navy. Her house was my 2nd home. I spend many hours as a kid with Patty coloring and reading comic books. Last time I saw Patty was New Year’s Eve 1967 at the Viscose FD party. RIP my old friend. 😢🙏
