Mom - I know you know how much I love you. You were my best friend and the one who helped me become the person that I am. I will be greatful for that forever. You were an amazing mother, grandmother, and wife. You should be proud of the legacy you are leaving behind. Although my tears are great, I am comforted by the fact that you are no longer in pain. I know you were at the point where it wasn't worth it anymore. You are now at peace with your brother, sister, and parents. I wish you love and joy as you continue eternal life.

Donny and family,
Pat was a very gracious, caring and thoughtful person who we feel fortunate to have known. Even though we only had the pleasure to see her for a short time every year, we will miss her greatly. She always showed such concern for others, even though she had things so difficult herself in her later years. Pat was also fortunate to have such a loving caring husband as yourself, Donny. You will always have our deepest respect and admiration. We hope to see you again this winter in Aruba.
