Pat was an extraordinary person... from the moment we met, we began to laugh... the chuckles and fun lasted for five years, for which I will always be grateful.  She spoke of family in such loving terms...enjoying each and every one of you.  Her last call to me was about Lindsey who she wanted to be sure I included to dinner the day after her operation.

That was just like mom Kaytie, always looking out for others, especially for her tribe...

Pete,
Through all the news of Pat's passing this slide show is the first time I found myself not able to hold back the tears.  What an inspiration.  Our kids will always hold fond memories of their GG and I will always be in awe of the woman that did so much and made it look so effortless. The Bosek's are praying for everyone and celebrating all the great memories with Pat as we cope with her passing. Praying for you, Lindsey, Susie, Mimi and the rest of the family.  Our warmest comfort is in the truth that we will be united again in a better place.  Always looking forward to making the memories that make times like this so hard.  Hope to see everyone soon.

Lindsey and family my heart goes out to you all for the loss of such a beautiful and bright light. I only knew her for a brief moment in time and I am honored to have been a part of her story. The pictures you have all shared seem to express her spirit of fun, adventure, love for her family and a life well lived. Cherish every beautiful memory. God bless you all with his comfort and peace.

Pat and John Tenvold were among the wonderful friends of my late parents, Margie and Jim Folger, when our family lived in San Carlos in the 1950s-1960s.  They really enjoyed life together!  I’m so sorry she is no longer with you.

I have fond memories of Mrs. Tenvold, having known her for 35 years--more than half my life! She was always so kind to me, my husband and two daughters, I met her in California, but even when we moved back east (for 20 years), still felt close to her. I thought of her as my "west-coast mom." She seemed like such a happy person, so grateful for all of her family and friends. A happy life.
