Remembering Pat Anderson
The Home Hill Tennis and Sugar Bowl communities mourn the loss of Life Member, Pat Anderson. Alongside her late husband Lex, Pat dedicated countless hours to the club and was instrumental in the success of the beloved Sugar Bowl. Known for her kindness, generosity, and incredible baking—especially her perfect sponge cakes—Pat left a lasting impact on all who knew her.
Our heartfelt condolences go out to her family during this difficult time. Funeral details will be published in this week’s paper.
