Estes Family,

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of sorrow. I had the pleasure of going to school and working with Pat at the shipyard and the one thing i remember about her was how much she loved her family. I hope and pray that she has found peace now and remember she was loved by many.

I'm so sorry to hear of Pat's passing. We've know each other since grade school. I remember the time she went with us to Nags Head, we were probably in 6th grade and Mom told us not to get wet. A wave caught Pat and Danna and I were trying to pull her up and out of the water...I think we had her by the hair!

My thoughts and prayers are with you all, Mr. and Mrs. Estes, Cindy and Kathy.

Pat was a high school buddy and a good friend, we had some good times together. I know things were hard in the end, but hopefully Pat will be at peace. Its hard to lose someone at such a young age of 48. But hopefully she will live on in our dreams.

My prayers are with Pat's family.

Love

To the Estes Family,

Pat & I have been friends since high school and I am deeply saddened by her passing. Just know that there are alot of people out here that loved and cared for her. I pray that Pat found some peace in her final days and that God's grace will be with each of you now. I will miss my friend very much but I know that she is with God and will never be sick again.

To Pat's children,

Your mother loved you more than you will ever know. She will always be with you.
