I am so sorry for you loss. I met Pat years ago when she would bring the aunties in for their dr appointments and later at St. Joseph's parish. She was such a wonderful lady. I am so sorry that I did not make it to the services. My sympathies to all of her wonderful family. I am sure she driving the aunties in heaven.
