Patricia was a devoted mother and grandmother. She loved our Catholic faith and her family. She, like her own mother, attended daily mass and lived her faith as a loving example to her children. She was a source of family strength and wise counsel. Tennis was her social passion. She began to play tennis in her 30s, and played until just weeks before her passing. Her tennis friends were her second family and the tennis court became her second home. Patricia also enjoyed ballroom dancing with friends. The lindy was her favorite!
The visitation and rosary are scheduled for 6pm on Thursday, February 8, 2024, at Restland, 13005 Greenville Avenue, Dallas. A funeral mass will be at 11am on Friday, February 9, 2024, at St. Catherine of Sienna Catholic Church, 1705 E. Peters Colony Rd, Carrolton.
