DeYoung Family:
Patricia DeYoung was an absolute angel, she was also my godmother. She never forgot me during the holidays or my birthday. She always lit up a room with her good nature. She was such a pleasure to be around. I cannot thank her enough for what she did for me as a child. I guess I won the lottery with her as my very special friend even though she did not have to be so nice to me. Her and Ed are unforgetable. They had a way of making people happy and bringing smiles to faces. My mother and I are especially very saddened by her leaving us and going home to God. The apple in my throat after learning this news will take a long time to go away. She will always be remembered in our prayers. We are so sorry. The world was a better place with your mom and dad in it.

Dear Sue, Ed and Heather,
Your mom was a very special lady. Some of my most treasured memories are of you and your parents. Mrs. DeYoung was always so kind to me and treated me like family. I'll never forget the late nights spent at your home where she and grandma would make pizza for us. My thoughts are with you in this time of sorrow.
Love, Sue DiNatale-Lee
