My dear Pat, you meant so much to me and our family. I appreciated how you filled my mother's place when she passed. I shall miss our phone calls. To Pat's family I am so sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful lady and dear friend.

To the Dell’alba family I’d like to express my condolences for the loss of your Mother, and Grandmother. Patricia was a gem. I will always remember her as a kind loving person always wearing a smile and having a great sense of humor. She is not suffering anymore and as we all know has entered the kingdom of Heaven with her Creator. We all have a certain amount of time her on Earth and she gave it a 100% God Bless you Pat
