Mrs. Van Wyngarden (as we kids were taught to address her), was a thoroughly kind and always thoughtful presence in our Reasnor neighborhood where my brother Kirke and I grew up with Craig and Kent. We enjoyed her excellent cookies and pies on more occasions than I can count, including at the annual church ice cream supper and the food stand at Reasnor's memorable fastpitch softball games. Pat had an outstanding sense of humor, a delightful smile and the prettiest laugh ever. It did me a world of good to watch the video your family has so kindly provided. Please accept my deepest sympathy at the loss of a truly special lady. Jane (Northcutt) Bravick
