Pat was a wonderful christian woman. She always had a gentle smile. I am sorry for your loss and pray that the Lord will give you comfort during this time. She's walking the streets of Gold with all of our loved ones who have gone on before us. I was out of town and so upset to know about your loss. God Bless you all.

Pat was a wonderful person and always had a smile on her face.

She is definitely in Heaven with our Savior.
