Kim, Kathy and Krissy,
Just heard about your mother's passing. Tears fill our eyes for your loss, but a smile is also on our faces when we think about all the fun times we shared while growing up. Little did we know that day I went home from school with you, Kim, our moms would become friends too. My mom remembers Pat being her first best friend when she moved to Modesto. Your mom was so much fun to be around and she loved you girls so much. We are sorry that time and distance kept us from staying in touch. You are in our prayers and indeed, your mother is dancing in heaven. We are so blessed to have known her.

Kim, so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was always a happy positive lady. I never once heard her complain. I enjoyed being her neighbor and friend so long ago. Sincerely, Anita Hinrichsen
