Lorena Daniel is a retired Air Force secretary whom Patrick met through the Cisco Systems Regional Academy at Merced College in California. She helped Patrick's Cisco networking instructor, Bill Walls, organize his office from time to time, keeping up on his paperwork and organizational tasks, and she attended the Cisco classes - usually sitting next to Patrick. She's very smart, and Patrick would commonly go out to lunch or dinner with her at Perko's, among other restaurants, to discuss topics ranging from school to dating women. He also communicated with her by e-mail after he moved from California. She has been a very valuable resource to help Patrick develop in his personal and professional lives. Patrick even fixed her computer once at her house, and he got to meet her numerous kitty cats! *meow*
