She grew up in Raritan, New Jersey and went to Immaculata High School where she met her husband Ken Saller. They married on September 10, 1976 and moved to Colorado in May of 1979. Together they had six children together: Jennifer, Brian, Kevin, Katie, Connor, and Eileen. While raising her family she continued her education at CSU and graduated Magna Cum Laude in 1986 with a BS degree in Medical Technology and Microbiology. She worked at Hematology Oncology Associates for 18 years and got much enjoyment out of taking care of patients and their families during their cancer journeys. She retired in 2004. Patsy enjoyed camping with her young family, traveling to the New Jersey Shore for vacations, swimming in the Gulf of Mexico at Long Boat Key, and family vacations in the National Parks. She was a dedicated mother who rarely missed her children's activities or games. She was a very caring person who was always willing to help her children, husband, and others when in need. Patsy loved to cook, bake, read, sew and crochet. Fort Collins will never be the same without her chocolate chip cookies and pumpkin bread. Mom, we love you and miss you already.
