Pat has been my boss for the last 8 years for Integrated at Rochelle Community Hospital. She was a remarkable boss, and confidant. I will miss her very, very much. My heart and prayers go out to the family. Estelle

We are so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. Even though we met Pat only a few times, we remember her very warm heart and smile. She was one of those people that you instantly felt comfortable with--such a kindred spirit. Our prayers are with all of you right now. Love, Alli and Bill

We are sorry to hear of the loss of Mrs DiGiovanni. I only met her a couple of times but we knew from Tony that she was a remarkable woman. We lost our mom the same week. Our prayers are with you. Tom
