Just the same as her famous love taps when around her too. She was a woman of such tremendous strength and yet a soft exterior. She was beautiful inside and out. She loved deeply all those she held close to her heart, no matter time or distance. Patricia loved spending time with family and friends. She enjoyed laughing and especially dancing. She enjoyed trips to the mountains. Breckenridge held a special place in her heart and many fond memories. Those closest to her will remember her when they visit there from now on. She took a lot of pride in being a good wife, mother and grandmother and friend. She is preceded in death by her beloved parents, Jose & Victoria Perez, her beloved brother Joe Perez and her beloved sister Vera Bettis.
