Obituary of Patricia Pat Martin

Patricia, Pat Martin, 62 years young, a dedicated wife, mom and friend, passed away at her home on December 6, 2008. She was born in Saginaw, MI on December 27, 1945 to Richard (Bud) and Helen Hare. She met and married John and moved here in 1984. Pat has met many people in her short life, but each person soon became a friend. She always made sure everyone had a place to come for the holidays. If you ask anyone who knew her, they would say she was one of the best cooks and always made too much food. No one would complain though, because she always made you a plate to take home.
