Pat passed away peacefully today Tuesday, September 3rd at 2:37 PM
As per her wishes, there will not be a viewing or a funeral service and she is to be cremated.
I will be positing more developments in here as they occur.
I Thank All of you for the support you have given Pat, myself and my parents.
Scott Barlow
Dear Scott, I am so sorry for the loss, but At the same time I am greatful to know that Pat’s passing was peaceful and that she left at her own time. My heart goes out to you and your family. September will never be the same, as I also had a great loss in September of 2012.
Vija, I should have responded to this immediately. For the rest , Gary , Vija’s husband , passed last year in this month. It will always be a difficult month, Gary was a very good friend of ours. Also this is the month of Pat and I’s anniversary, that would have been the 14th of September, and our 11th.
Scott
You know our hearts are with you Scott…we are here for you if you need anything at all….We love you so much
Nance and Susan
Scott,
Please know how sorry we are. It’s been a roller coaster of emotions for you & your parents and hope your sorrow will soon be replaced with all the happy memories you shared.
Hugs
We’re all a little bit better for having known Pat. She couldn’t have asked for a better partner than you, Scott, for this journey through better and worse, sickness and health. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Hugs to you, your parents, and the pups.
Kim, you should know that I have been keeping up on Pat’s legacy with the greyhounds. Tonight on our way back , walking , from Mom and Dad’s, a young family was intrigued by the pups, and I did just as Pat would have, and gave all the information about them.
Scott
Ha, that made me smile. Pat would be so proud of you! 😉
Scott,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will tell the staff. Please know we have missed you both. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sincerely,
Sandy
Capt. Groovys
Thanks Sandy. I hope to return to Groovy’s someday.
Scott & the Pups
Scott,
My thoughts are with you, I know this has all been rough. There must be some solace in knowing that there can be no suffering from this point forward for Pat.
You, on the other hand must go on, and only time will heal. As I’ve mentioned, I’m not sure what it would be, but don’t hesitate to ask if there’s anything you need, even if it’s just an ear. You were strong for Pat, let us be strong for you.

I am so sorry. It was a pleasure knowing Pat. The world won’t be quite the same without her smiling face and cheerful personality. Thoughts and prayers for you, your family and the pups.
Scott,
My husband just told me about one of the kindest, most beautiful woman on the face of this earth and I am so very, very sorry. I Amos stunned. I did not even know she was sick. I also now know why she did not return our phone calls last February when we were at our condo in Bonita. Oh how I so wish I knew, and I feel so very bad that I did not come to Virginia to see her one last time, but she is in my heart and mind and will be there forever and always.
I know that sounds selfish on my part, I know you must have a huge crater in your heart and in the pit of your gut!
I am going to read your blog, Jim just found it.
she was very happy with you, her great smile beamed everytime we saw you guys at the bar on the beach!
Again Scott, may you find peace in time and I will keep you in my thoughts and in my heart.
Much love , and extreme sadness,
Pat Stock Garlock
Grin, I know you, and thank you for your kind words. Her spirit is around.
Scott
Scott,
You and your parents have been through such a long tough time, you’ve been so brave. You know we love you and we are so sorry to have lost Pat from our lives. I will keep her sweetness in my heart forever.
Dear Scott,
We are so very sorry that Pat is no longer with us. It was truly a pleasure and an honor have been able to call her her freind. I will always have the best memories of you both in FMB, we looked forward to when you both came down. I know she fought hard, and long, with class and dignity. She was truly a GREAT lady! We will miss her……Love to you and your family
So sorry for your loss, Scott. Pat and I used to hang out together once a year at the GEGR Reunion picnic and I loved this lady.
Scott,
Dan and I were so sorry to hear about Pat. She was a dear, sweet person and we will continue to miss her walking the dogs and working in your yard. I know it has been terrible for you and your parents watching her suffer.
With loving sympathy.
Linda & Dan
Scott,
Pat and I were best of friends in high school. We kept in touch during our college years – however, as the years passed and our lives took different turns, we no longer kept up with each other. I was shocked and very saddened to find out about Pat. She was a wonderful friend and I will always have wonderful memories of our years together. Although I haven’t seen her in a long time – there will be an emptiness in my heart as I know she is no longer here with us. Please know that I am so so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.

Scott, I am so sorry for your loss! Please know that my thoughts are with you, your parents and the “pups”.
Stay strong!
Scott, words can’t express how sorry I am for your loss. Pat was a very special greyhound friend to me. I will always remember her quite laugh and her beaming smile especially the day she adopted Chuy and our deal that I could be “Chuy’s other mom” Pat will always have a special place in my heart and I know she is at the Bridge surrounded by her beloved greyhounds. Scott, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
