Bill, Trisha and Jimmy;
I was so saddened to hear of Patty's passing. Used to run into her occasionally a few years back.
I'd know her for many, many years. As a child we rented our home from her grandmother, the years later my parents bought the home that belonged to her other grandparents. After school I'd began babysitting for you on most weekends...I loved Trisha and Jimmy. Think of them often.
Bill, hold onto all good memories, reflect on them. Cherish those kiddos with all your might.
Sending and hugs to you all, Linda
