Dear friends, 

Pat greeting guests at the TBBCF 10th Birthday Party
On Thursday, March 23, 2017, Patricia Meringolo, Red Hats pit stop team lead since 2011 and year-round office administrative volunteer since 2013, lost her battle with lung cancer. She was diagnosed in August, 2016. Patty was a great person! She often worked the registration table at TBBCF events, with her side-kick, Barbara Garry.

I hope you got the chance to meet Pat along the way. I include some TBBCF photos and a photo of Pat and me at her last "SHS girls" luncheon in December, 2016.


Pat and I have been friends since kindergarten. She is one of my Stonington High School buds ... and one of a group of my SHS girls who have been volunteering at the walk for years. Pat's obituary is  listed in  today's New London Day and The Westerly Sun. Click here to read Pat's obituary.





RIP Pat!

Sandy
