“We were thrilled to sponsor Pat. She is caring, dedicated and devoted to Outreach’s mission of compassionate assistance,” Epley said. “She is a tremendous asset to Outreach, as I’m sure she is to the other organizations that she shares her time with.”

Second Wind Hall of Fame members are chosen by the organization’s board of directors to recognize “a useful and productive life beyond retirement,” and for beginning, “a new career of service to the community and mankind.”
