Mrs. Pat Patraw came to work at Clifton-Fine in 1971. She was the secretary to our Superintendent of Schools as well as having many oth- er responsibilities. She was responsi- ble for the design and layout of the newsletter, maintaining a district calendar of activities, taking care of the details of the annual election, and preparing district budget mate- rials. Her tasks were many, but she still had time for family and friends. Being a very religious person, she attended mass and sang with the choir. She also enjoyed being with her family, sewing and other home projects. Mrs. Patraw was a very friendly person, greeting everyone with a happy smile. She was also very helpful; whenever there was a problem, she would be there to lend a helping hand, fust the smile in her eyes seemed to show everyone that everything would be all right. She was happy with her work; the sound of her hearty laugh was proof of the enjoyment she found in it. We shall always remember the happiness she felt and the way it shined in her eyes. Her reassuring smile and cheerful laugh will be with us all, always.
