To her Children,Grandchildren and
Greatgrandchildren,
As Pat's hairdresser for more than 30yrs, Pat was first a
beautiful,and fun client with the the most exquisite color and
texture of hair I did of over 1000 people in my career. Then Pat
became my dear friend,Mother figure,and mentor.
Every time she arrived it was like a ray of sun coming in the
door, such a great smile and sense of humer,we laughed a lot.
After the greetins we would head to the shampoo bowl,
everytime she reminded me a firm shampoo, NO CONDITIONER, cold
rinse...........then it was onto the usual cut, sometimes with a
few minor adjustments, but she always told me people
complimented her cut, and who does the color job on
it.............then we laugh, and laugh.
Now it was time for the McNelis family update, which I asure
you all, was nothing but words of a very proud wife, Mother,
Grandmother etc. I would have to say she made me feel loved and
cared about like her own Daughters.
I will truly miss her sunshine
Peace and blessings,
Janice Risser
Mother will be missed by many.
The Family look forward to hearing from others that mother has
touched with her smile wit and charm.
Love Michael
We were so sorry to here about your mother!
We know it is never easy to lose a parent. We just want you to
know that we are and will be praying for you and your family.
If you need anything please just ask.
Regards,
Jeanette and Enver
I would like to express my heartfelt sympathy
to Pat's family. She was so proud of each and every one of
you. I have known Pat since 1977--from bowling, and that moved
on to pinochle and lunch outings. There were always a lot of
laughs when she was around. I will miss her!
