She started her own antique business, Tricia's Treasures and just loved the business and all the socialization that went with it.

Pat was very involved in many church organizations. She, along with Len founded the Stephen Ministry at St Anne's church in Palmyra. Pat loved to watch her husband's and children's sports and activities. She, along with all the Schmitt's loved the Buffalo Bill's and attended many games. Tricia and Len traveled the country and the world. She loved her Villa, attended church services and loved to play bridge with the ladies. Her number one priority was her family and profoundly appreciated them.

Pat was a treasure. She was a strong woman of honesty and faith. She was kind, loving, generous, fabulously elegant and a lovely human with a fun zest for life. She shall be missed by many. Pat and Len are once again cutting a rug.
