Pat Cleary Front Desk
Given by the friends and family of Mrs. Pat Cleary
For 50 years, Pat Cleary was the heart and soul of Stone Ridge. Sitting at her command center of the reception desk since 1969, she welcomed our visitors, directed daily foot traffic, and kept the phones in order. We pay tribute to Mrs. Cleary’s commitment to Stone Ridge by naming the front desk in her memory.
