This is the first passing of someone I feel I've come to know from these lists. Thanks for posting this, Bob, and please offer my sympathy to Pat's husband and good friends. I won't be at the memorial and I haven't participated in any of the book discussion rooms but I am well aware of all that Pat has done and appreciate her efforts and her thoughtful and reasoned posts on the lists.
