PATRICIA ANN ROWLAND STOTT THOMSON DIETRICH

(Lots of history there!) 

Born in 1936 of Mary Elizabeth Bailey, Quaker, and William Alfred Rowland, of Irish descent, she defied protocol and clamored after her beliefs in the written word and the musical note, putting her love, faith and trust in the “Land of Paws”, rather than human fallibility. 

Believing in the God, or Gods of fate, faith and nature, her therapy was the Earth. The sea always called to her - the unknown always a quest. 

Love? Ubiquitous - never fulfilled to her expectations. 

Her most profound achievement on this Earth was the birth of her daughter, Shelly, conceived with and born in the arms of the truest love, thereby creating a child of no comparison. 

As she travels on - wanting no reunions other than with her beloved pets - you can believe, as she always has, there is no end - only new beginnings. 

Celebrate!!! 

“Faeries, come take me out of this dull world, 

For I would ride with you upon the wind, 

Run on the top of the disheveled tide, 

And dance upon the mountains like a flame.” 

― William Butler Yeats, The Land of Heart's Desire
