As a child Pat Parteleno wanted to be a cowboy and could often be found in western boots even in mid-summer. After high school Pat began studying business with a sports-related job in mind, but an extern student at her father’s pharmacy convinced Pat to follow in her father’s footsteps and come to ONU to study pharmacy.
It may have been inevitable. Pat’s parents, Joseph and Eleanor, met in that pharmacy, married, brought up seven children in their Catholic home under rules of self-reliance, independence, strong values and the importance of hard work.

Some pie lovers call this Amish milk pie. Since the Icon never follows a pie recipe properly, we’ll call this the Icon One-Fourth Amish Half-and-Half Milk Pie.
That’s primarily because we cut out lots of the sugar. You’ll notice one-fourth in lots of places in the list of ingredients – thus the renamed pie. We'll get to the half-and-half shortly.
In fact, we cut out one complete cup of sugar and this pie was devoured in the same amount of time as any previous pie from the Icon’s oven. So, who needs all that sugar?
