I think of Pat throughout the Christmas season. I still have so many things from when she sold Avon and Christmas Around the Works. I also have a beautiful snow gloves that she gave me. She is a wonderful memory!

Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life, he who believes in me will never die, but will have eternal life."

Thank God for Pat, and for her victory in Jesus.

Jack, John, Sarah & Wes,

Pat was a true inspiration to all of us. We rejoice because she is at much peace now in Heaven with our Lord, and we pray that God's peace will heal each of you in time. Cole (4yrs) loved her very much as his teacher last year. He told us he knew she was in Heaven--which shows her love for Christ was seen by the youngest of children.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time. May God's comfort, peace, and blessings be with each of you. The pain will eventually ease over time, but the want of sharing another cup of coffee, shopping, or sharing another holiday will be a constant reminder of the love you each shared with her. Thank you Pat for all you gave us at Immanuel, you were a true inspiration.

My prayers are with you, Jack, Sarah and John. Pat was an incredible person and we will all miss her so very much. She made a lasting impression on me and my son and we will always remember her courage and strong faith. I remember her crying when Michael sang the song, "I Can Only Imagine", that expresses what we might do when we go to stand in HIS presence. Even though we have tears and sorrow in our heart we can celebrate that Pat is now experiencing HIS presence and I can almost hear her "Hallelujahs"!

Well done, good and faithful servant!! Pat was a wonderful Christian, friend and servant and wore her faith on her sleeve, especially during these years of battling cancer. She fought hard and is now enjoying her eternal rest in the presence of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We will miss you Pat, but we will never forget you.
