Patsy was a member of the Gold Mine Antique Shop in Wayzata, MN where she made millions! (Of friends that is . . .) She was truly special. Life with this woman was huge! The phone rang all day – she was always helping somebody have a happy day – laugh – it just never stopped!
Patsy’s greatest accomplishment was her three children who have always been in her thoughts and prayers from the day they were born – her success with her own carried over to her grandchildren. She had a special relationship with each one of them! She was a faithful and generous friend to all who knew her – it seemed she had hundreds of friends, for which she was always grateful. A skilled and determined card player and golfer, she seldom won, preferring to laugh and enjoy a friend’s success.
Visitation will be at 10 AM followed by Mass of Christian Burial. Private Interment St. Mary's Catholic Cemetery, Minneapolis.
In lieu of flowers, memorials preferred to the Bridget Emmer Greene Memorial Scholarship Fund at Visitation School, or Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church.
Laugh today a lot! Cheer somebody up! Patsy will be proud of you!
