Ronda & Family,

My deepest sympathy for the loss of your mother. Pat was such a sweet lady to put up with my "noisy" family when we came to visit your home. I really did enjoy talking with her during our visits.

Ronda & Family,

My deepest sympathy for the loss of your mom. I enjoyed working with Pat/switchboard at Riverside. I did get to see her about a month or so ago at the Htp Rds Eye DR's ofc and talked to her a little. I am glad I had the opportunity. I know she will be missed by your family.
