Warren, my sister shared with me the news of Pat’s passing. Have to share with you that you have been an inspiration to many with the devoted and dedicated care you gave Pat following her illness and your daily vigil while she was in the Broadwater Health Care Facility has not gone unnoticed. You are a true example of ‘in sickness and in health’. We all know she did not have quality of life in her later years but your presence certainly made a difference in her days.
Our thoughts are with you. How I loved to see her smile when saying hello to her in the cafeteria. Take care.
Sincerely, Charleen Adams Haines (Verna Adams’ daughter from Oregon)

I enjoyed Pat so much! Our kids grew up together. Her smile lit up a room, and her quick wit and sense of humor were special. I remember her saying, as our two families totaling a dozen or more kids scrambled up the church steps at the last possible moment, “They should just wait to start until we get here!” She was always happy to talk about her family’s successes and achievements. “The Antonick kids” acquired much of your strong work ethic from your mom. The most we can hope for as parents is to leave our children to make the world a better place. She got to see you all become accomplished and productive members of your communities and workplaces–and good parents to her grandchildren. No matter how ready we are, there is always a gap in the fabric of our family when a member passes on.
These recent years have been tough. Warren, you gave her much happiness. Your loving devotion is an example for us all.
Our prayers for Pat’s eternal rest, and for peace to all the family.

Warren, so sorry to hear of Pat’s passing. I know what good care you took of her. May you be blessed with memories of good times and joy of your love. Thinking of you. Take good care.
STEVEN CROWLEY says
Warren, I am sorry for your loss. I enjoyed meeting you and Pat at my father’s memorial. Pat shared memories of growing up with my dad, her half-brother, then and my sisters and I enjoyed hearing about those times.
Best,
Steve Crowley

Warren, miss seeing you both. My favorite memory was when you both came into American Legion Post 42 for an event. She was so vibrant. And your devotion to her these past years was heart warming. Stop in anytime you pass my house and my car is there.
Cathy Olsen South says
I am so sorry for your loss. Pat was a very special lady! Lots of memories growing up as neighbors up Deep Creek. I had a ride in an ambulance from Townsend to Helena and Pat was the nurse with me. She took good care of me and made me feel so much better. God bless you all!
