So sorry to hear of Pat’s passing. She was an amazing person. She hired me in the late 70s as a young teenager to work at Opinion Place. She was an great role model. The market research she conducted back then was so interesting. She touched a lot of people. - Posted by: Betty-Jean Triethart (Worked for her) on: Apr 26, 2021

Sorry to learn about this. Pat was someone who gave me an opportunity to have some real life experience in marketing research at her company, where I worked in the early 80s. I'll forever be grateful for that. Good to know she lived to a ripe old age, and that she appears to have been on her own right up till the last years - especially remarkable for a lifelong smoker - Posted by: Paul Lai (Worked with her) on: Jan 06, 2021
