I SPENT MANY YEARS W/HUSBAND DEAN & PAT WHILE SHE WAS IN THE SECURITY
INDUSTRY.. @
THE RETAIL CHAIN
STORE,, "VALU-
MART" IN BELLEVUE, WA.
A MORE WONDERFUL PERSON SIMPLY

& DEAN KAISER!
MOST SINCERLY,
KIRK WINTERS

EMPLOYEE)..
Pat, who my sisters and I knew as "Patty," (same as our sister Pat "Patty" when we were little kids who was the same age) was one of my very first memories as a child with being our next door neighbors. I loved the time spent with the Moon Family. I (we) have so many wonderful memories of our time spent with Pat and her family.
One of my saddest memories as a child was when I heard they were moving. My heart ached with the thought of them no longer being our neighbors. But it wasn't long after they moved that we got to go visit them in their new home in South Tacoma. We got to spend just as much time with them as their family grew from two children to five!
Pat was a little on the shy and quiet side and so was I. I always remember how pretty she was and she had such a pretty smile. I don't feel I really got to know her the way I wish I had but loved the time spent with her family.
What I've learned with reading her obituary is that she carried on the same wonderful family tradition with her cooking and hospitality that her Mom and Dad always showed which is why I loved being around them. I'm just sorry I didn't get to spend more time and get to know her better as adults.
My heart and condolences goes out to Josie (Our Second Mom) and Pat's Sisters and Brothers for their loss. I love her sister Kathy's tribute. Is is so beautifully said.
Love and Blessings to All. ❤️
We are going to miss you Pat. Your kindness & compassion to everyone you knew will never be forgotten. You fought so hard for 2 1/2 years & finally are out of pain which you endured for so long.
We have been friends for 40+ years & I don't think we ever had a disagreement. We have great memories of our trips to Reno, Cabo & your visits to Palm Springs.
I was so glad to have spend time with your family during the last few months. What an incredible close family. I can certainly see where you inherited your giving to others.
We will keep in touch with Dean, Shelley & your adorable grandson Zak. He was the light of your life and has many great memories of his Grandma.
With all our Love & Hugs
Walt & Gloria
I was sad to learn of Pat's passing, she was a classmate at Mount Tahoma. This picture of her is so lovely and so real. Bless her family and may they hold each other in love through this difficult time.

My much missed and forever loved big sister ~ one of the greatest gifts my heart will ever know. I'll never forget her and will cherish the memories forever.
They say...
You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all she's left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see her, or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember her only that she is gone, or you can cherish the memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what she'd want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on.
I loved doing Pat's hair, she came to me throughout quite a few years. We would go around and around about her bangs. She always new what she wanted from them. We would laugh about it. I will miss her wit and quick comebacks and good conversations. ❤️❤️😘
Pat was one of my closest friends and “spare” mom. Once my parents started going to Palm
Springs for the winter she would call and say “remember I am here if you need anything while your mom is gone “. We are family !
When I had surgery in January, she called me when we were on the way to check in at 5:45 am just to tell me that it will be ok and she loved me . She was very sick and made sure to call ....
I will miss her not waking through our doors in with a platter of food and smile on her face .. my favorites pigs in a blanket and pickle and cream cheese wraps . I helped her make deviled eggs a few months ago for her family ....first of all I do not like deviled eggs and I am not exactly a perfectionist while cooking.. I filled each egg with her supervision while she made each one look better . At the end , we laughed and said I better stick to pigs in a blanket ...
Towards the end when I was at their house she would tell me that I should go home and make dinner for my family ... I would laugh and tell her my family is fine and they want me to be here . She would just smile and say thank you ..
Pat cared and worried about her family . She fought hard and loved until the end . It was nice getting to know her mom, brothers and sisters throughout this journey ..
She asked me to make sure Shelley and Dean are ok and we promised Zach would never forget her .
She was a true friend and I am lucky to have known her . I am thankful my parents met Pat and Dean and to have shared many great times .. plus Shelley was like a little sister . The Gays and Kaisers always had fun !!
Thank you Dean and Shelley for including us in this journey . I miss her every day and will never forget her .. she would end every conversation with an “ I love you “ and with me
Sniffling ...
I know she is having a margarita in the sky :)
