Aunt Pat you will truly be missed I Love our Talks and you give me the strength to keep pushing through everything. Will miss our dancing and laughing together give your sister a big hug from me and GMA also. Xoxo see you when I get there some day R.I.H. xoxo
I remember her taking us to the drive in, usually Pendleton Pike. Terry and I would sit in the back of her station wagon playing little kids games so we could get in free lol
She also always told me to chew my bubble gum with my mouth closed because it sounded like a cow chewing it’s cud. I laugh now because it irritates me now when I hear others 'chewing their cud' lol

To all my Lee cousins,
I’ve been remembering the summers spent on Dubarry with all of you. Northeastwood bowling and swimming. Patsy was always welcoming us and you all made summers especially fun! Will miss your mom and her always ready to dance at Moochers and other venues! Know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers,
Cousin Pat was always like a second mom to my 5 brothers and I. (Pat was Niece of Rita Talboo-Schafer.) Around 1960’s, Schafer, Lee, Talboo and Liosi families were raised on Northeast side of Indianapolis.
So grateful to Pat especially for all of her support for my musical endeavors over the years. (Also, for her ability to extend phone calls as long as I could…)
I know it wasn’t much but as I said. My favorite memory will always be her. Getting to see my wife and I sober and the smile she had when I gave her the rosary. Even in coherent she still knew that rosary…… Today I had actually planned ongoing with dad and sitting in playing guitar for grandmom. Let her love free music sure gave me the drive. I needed to never stop playing again. We love you Grandma rest in peace. Which one do you think I?
