How well I remember Pat at the General Office Building of the MECRR on St. John Street in Portland, ME. It was a great place to work. Pat, who worked in Purchasing found it necessary to consult me as it related to the division of revenue ,money we would get from shipping railroad material to us. This was important as it contributed to the bottom line of the railroad. I tell you this because Pat was very dedicated to make sure how the company made out in these transactions. . Pat was a great person to work with and I am sorry to hear she has passed. Those who knew her surely will miss her company, a great lady. My sympathy is extended to her as well as her many relatives and friends. God Bless Pat. Sumner (Tommy) Thompson. Retired Manager of Divisions, MECRR
