Patricia I’m one of Patricia’s cousins. All of my life I have thought Patricia was the coolest person on the planet! Total package! …When I was little, she was selected to be a beauty queen and got to wear a gown and ride in a convertible in a parade!…Lots of times I watched her set her hair in “ pin curls” with about a hundred bobby pins (before rollers.) …She took me to “Ameche’s” with her girlfriends. (“Meetcha at Ameche’s, Hon!” in Dundalk, look it up) … She, and our other cousin, Patsy, danced the Irish jig at my Pop Pop Kerins’ birthday parties. …She went on dates with Bob (so handsome.) They were like a couple in the movies! I was the junior bridesmaid at their wedding (every little girl’s dream come true!) …She was the PARTY queen of the family! Boy could she throw a party! Birthdays, baby showers, Baptisms, First Communions, engagement parties, anniversaries, graduations, you name it…..all fabulous! She created so many happy times for so many people….But when difficult times came, her strong faith saw her through. Family was always important. She and Bob had three of the cutest kids you’ve ever seen, Robby, Mary Beth, and Mark. Patricia was a great Mom and loved them to the moon and back! And when the grandchildren came along, you could see a special love in her eyes. She had a great sense of humor. She was beautiful inside and out. She was kind. She was faithful. She made the world a better place! Gerry Kerins Feild
