She was dedicated to her family through thick and thin, always there with a warm embrace and a macaroni, tomato and cheese casserole. She enjoyed trips to the Big Apple, crafts\/sewing and quilting, but more than anything, her greatest happiness was found when spending time with her children, grandchildren and great grandson. Pat was a member of Immaculate Conception Church, where she found joy in teaching Sunday school. She was also an avid member of the Friends of Hays Eagles, forming close friendships with many of the members throughout the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\nPat is survived by her husband of 60 years, Ed; her daughters Kelly McDonough (Ed) and Cathy Romeo (Chris); her cherished grandchildren Donnie VanFleet (Say), Molly Romeo (Michael), Matthew Romeo (Noelle), and Lily Romeo (Adam); her remarkable great-grandson Greysin VanFleet; and her loving sister Lani Burke. Pat was preceded in death by her parents, two younger brothers, Robert and Tim Kelly (survived by wife, Sharon), and brother-in-law Bob Burke. She also leaves many other family members and friends who will sadly miss her.<\/p>\n<p>\nFamily and friends may call Monday, December 1st from 8:30 to 10 AM at August Haas Funeral Home. A blessing and committal service will be held at 10 AM. In lieu of flowers, Pat requested a memorial donation be made to the Janet Weis Children\u2019s Hospital and sent to 100 N.
