Pat is my daughter-in-law, Cindy's, mother. I wish I could have gotten to know her better, because I have a wonderful daughter-in-law! The longest conversation I had with Pat was the morning of Jason and Cindy's wedding. We had a long cup of coffee together, just the two of us. I don't remember all of the conversation, but I remember saying how grateful I was that Jason had found someone who could "handle" him! Well, Pat quickly claimed that Jason was going to have a way bigger job "handling" Cindy. I think we both thought no one was stronger-willed than our own child. I was so surprised and I don't think we settled the argument. Time has proved us both wrong. Our strong-willed children have grown up into wonderful adults! We wish to express our sympathy to Cindy and Jason, and all of Pat's loved ones! She must have been a very special lady! With deepest sympathy from all of us, Mike and Karin Potratz
