My sincere condolences to the family. Patty was so dedicated to whatever she committed to: Steelcase as her employer during her tenure there, rescuing animals, her faith and her family. I loved her wit and humor and always, every day, the kind and proud stories about her family and especially those grandchildren. May the Lord bless you and keep you and comfort you in your loss.
