Patty, it's so hard to believe that it's been a year since you went to be with Jesus. We miss you but know that you are watching over us from heaven and singing with the angels.

My heart aches as I mourn the loss of a true friend, mentor, and gift from God. Knowing how much Patty loved the Lord gives me peace because I know He called this angel on earth home. Our friendship grew over 15 years and Patty was always the one who could cheer me up with a smile and her positive attitude. She loved God, her family, and others. It has been a joy to call her friend. She always showed love to me and my son Xavier. Though I will miss her dearly, I will forever cherish her memory in my heart and only hope to be half the woman she was. Her heart was so full of love for her children. Brian and Alinda, I never got to meet you but know she spoke of you often. Brett and Joel, the same is true. Patty was so proud of you and so proud to be a mom. My prayers are with you all. May God bless and keep you in perfect peace. -Shontina Allen, Tallahassee

Brian, Alinda, Brett, and Joel, we are so sorry to learn of Patty's death. Joel, I didn't really get to know you because you were born later, but we knew the others when we all lived on Marston Road in Tallahassee. We moved to Tampa 15 years all where our children, Bart and Missy White, also live. I recall fondly Brett coming to our door many times to get me to check his loose tooth to see if it was ready to pull. God bless you all. Ann White (and Mike)

What a gal she was.
Her smile made my heart joyful.
Not only did we share in our first two names being the same. but we loved roses and animals.
I tried cutting back all her roses at the house so she would see them bloom this spring.
I loved your heart to take care of the needy.
Thank you for the times we spent.
I will miss you greatly and never forget you. Until we meet again, my dear friend......
Love and prayers to the family.

I met Patty 15 years ago and we had a very special friendship. She often told me that friendship like ours only comes once in a lifetime. How true she was. She was always giving me little things to let me know that we had a special friendship. One day she gave me a little black velvet pouch lined in purple satin. As I opened it there was a small stone that had 2 little gold hearts on it and under the hearts it says FRIENDS. I have always had the little pouch sitting in front of my computer where I can see it every day and I will cherish it like our friendship. We spent so many wonderful times together. We would laugh together and cry together. We would meet at night at McDonalds and sip ice tea and talk until closing time. She had such a sweet spirit about her. As she smiled I can remember the deep dimples in her cheeks and her eyes would just twinkle. I think we had more silly moments in our life then serious. She was a delight to my life and I will never ever let her friendship escape my heart. I guess God had a special spot in Heaven for Patty. I will miss her so much but I know that she is smiling down with her deep dimples and that little twinkle in her eyes. Char Leipply

To Patty's Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Patty was a great friend in high school and we regained contact last year. She was planning on coming to the Villages to visit and to look at property. I'm sorry we never got together. You will all be in my prayers during this difficult time.

Alinda, Brian, & Family,
I remember your mom when we were growing up. She was always so sweet and always seemed happy to see me when I would come down to play. Those were such simple times. I know over the years we have lost touch but we will never lose the memories. I am very sorry for your loss. I pray that God will hold you tight throughout this difficult time. I also pray that the good memories will always be foremost in your mind. Hugs to you all!
