I’ve known Patty and her family all my life, her younger brother Hank was my best friend. Patty was one of a kind. She was a member of the only Jewish family in our town, one of our first “hippies” and a pioneer in the practice of polarity therapy. She was loved & will be missed.
I was fortunate to have served with Chandana on the Mental Health of Northwest Arkansas Board. She was a brilliant, gentle, diplomatic, kind, cheerful, and caring person. She was a problem solver who was able to work with a variety of individuals. She was also lots of fun and had such a warm smile. She generously let our group meet in her office where we had lots of laughs while we talked about difficult matters. She will be missed.
Chandana is and was a colleague that showed great humility, but also was well-known for her many therapeutic gifts and talents. Her easy laugh and gentle support was felt by friends and clients alike, and I'm honored that I knew her.
Chandana has and is truly an inspiration to me and many other psychologists in northwest Arkansas. I worked with her personally for two years, and have been a member along with her for over 25 years in the PNWA organization. She is loved and will be loved through the hearts that she has touched. I am grateful to be one of those hearts.

Dr. Chandana enriched the lives of thousands of clients, friends, family, students, and colleagues. Her embrace of nature, justice, and peace will always be an inspiration to those who knew her. In her honor, may we all be a little more like dear Chandana.
We are so sorry for you loss. Losing a sibling is so hard, but knowing they are at peace and not in pain is helpful to heal your heart. I remember Patty as a beautiful child, fun loving and always ready to perform for her family. She was a favorite grandchild of Pop and Grandma Jettie. Her time on this earth was a blessing to her patients, students, friends and family. May her memory be a blessing.
Love,
Marcia and Hank Storch
As our heart is heavy for the loss of our dear friend and a very good neighbor she will be deeply missed ,Mike and Kathy Mccoy
