Not sure what to say?

Claire, Amee and Blair, I'm so sorry. Pat was a special cousin. My first introduction to fun in B'ham when I came to Southern. I had always know the boys, but Pat took me under his wing . When he met you Claire, you treated me as family, as well took me on trips, and had fun with the girls. You all have meant so much to me. I am so sorry, I had not come back in time to visit. Love you all very much. Carol A Burleson
