Woody,Matt,& Michelle,
I can't imagine what it means to loose a wife/spouse or mother, luckily I'm still blessed with mine, but my heart breaks for you. I haven't known all of you for very long, but I've seen the love you all share. I can't be there in person, but my prayers are with you and I know God and Jesus have Patty with them and she's feeling much better. God and Jesus also are with you, so you can go to them when you need to. Take care all of you. Patty, I know you feel better where you are.
Love to all, Kim (Smith)Keller

Patty and I graduated together from SBGHS way back when. Would always enjoy seeing her at DMV though not my favorite place to be. She always had a smile and a few good words for you. She will be missed. Praying for your family Patty.
