So sorry to read of Aunt Patty's passing. I have so many good memories of the cousins and family when we were young. I will treasure a basket I have she gave me. I brought it with me to South Carolina. I am thinking of all of you and will always remember Aunt Patty and everyone showing up for my Mom's funeral. It meant so much. David and I have a picture of he and I on a float we took last year and it reminds us of a picture we have of Dad and Aunt Patty on a float in Smithfield. You always remember your family. Love to all.

I remember Pat working at Hinkley's Market for years, and she was always great with everyone! I hadn't seen her since the Embden Bicentennial in 2004. She and Ted were always nice to talk to, and they always showed interest in my life!

Dear Ted and all the family of Pat - I will always remember the card games we had into the wee hours of the morning - I would always say, one time around the table!!! Pat was loved by all and am sure she will be missed by all, but remember that she is in a better place now where we will all meet someday! Ted, God will give you the strength to go on until you meet again. Our prayers are with you, Barb & Mickey

Grammie Sweetie,
I miss you so much. It's so hard to believe you are gone. I've had so many random memories this past week: your rice kripsy treats (oh how I loved them!), how your birthday cards with your chicken scratch always made me smile, you - lining us kids up on the couch at camp with our bowls of popcorn with fudge warming on it, smoothing out the foil wrinkles in the ring ding wrappers with you, eating toast with honey (what a treat!) at the A-frame, and many more. I'm so glad I got your recipe for the treats the last time we visited - I think I'll be making them often. I love you & miss you.

Dear Ted,
Thank you for the happiness you gave Pat. It was nice to see her smile.
Pat was such a kind, loving person, and she will be sorely missed.
Know you are loved,

Dearest Larry, Linda, Glenna, Sheila, and Cathy,
You all were so loved by your Mom. She kept her own company when it came to not interfering in your lives.
She lives on in your hearts and know, she will never be far from you.
Love to all of you,
Heather's Mom,
Linda
