Pat was preceded in death by her parents; two sons, Matthew Smith and Darren J Smith, a great-granddaughter Aubrey M Williams, a sister, Sylvia Hugo and a brother William "Bill" Meek.
Pat held strong that prayer and a good hug could heal any pain. She never met a stranger and loved and cared for everyone deeply.
