I am so terribly sorry for your loss. Giving up those we love is never an easy task, and I know it will be very difficult for all of you. However, I hope that knowing that you've all provided the most loving care, and been available to Pat these many months of her illness, will bring you comfort. I know Jenny (my friend and co-worker) has been grateful for the many visits she has had with Pat and her family, during this time. The hard part now is always for those left behind, to find our way without that missing family member. I hope the wonderful memories you've created over a lifetime with Pat, and the knowledge that she is now resting in the arms of our Lord, will help sustain you. Remember, love is the one thing you can take with you AND leave behind when you go.
You will remain in my prayers.

I'm so very sorry for your loss.
I have countless childhood memories of our families getting together and of "Mrs. Bell". I believe to this day I might not have made it past the age of six or seven had Pat not spied me climbing the rickety boards nailed to the huge pine in the backyard on Seneca Pkwy and taken action! My goal was to reach the tree house that was way at the top.... Pat was having none of that and after a brief "discussion" was able to promptly "persuade" me to give up the task at hand!
There's not a doubt in my mind she will be missed by all.
