Pat Rainey 1952-2016 r.i.p.

Pat had a twinkling smile as a hard-working children’s librarian, dedicated music lover, member of Folknet, quilter, and loving wife of 42 years; mother of six children, and doting grandmother. She fought the good fight with ovarian cancer but lost last month. Her funeral was the day before her 64th birthday.
