Where do I start? My mom's 'bestie'...good home cooking "don't spare the wine"...co-celebrating b'days with my dad...her 'to-die-for' fresh blueberry pie...getting giggly imbibing bubbly with 'the girls' @ the jewelers' convention in NYC...retail therapy "enjoy the shoe" followed by lunch "life's short so be sure to order the dessert 1st"...forgiving, but never forgetting, my German Shepherd Heidi's having nipped Jeff(?) when we were little kids...dog was just being protective of me @ boys...

Jeff, Gail and family; We were very sad to hear of the loss of your mom; another Edgewood parent has left us. We will keep you in our prayers.

Dear Jeff and Peter and families,

My heart goes out to you. Loss of a loved one is not easy at any age.

Pat was a major part of my life since early childhood. I will miss her profoundly. During Mom's last years, I thanked God daily for Pat. I don't know how Mom would have made it without her.
2 Cor5
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he...

jeff, gail and family - so sorry to hear of your mom's passing - my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Peter and Jeri and the Whitfield Family,
We send our thoughts to you all. I can't image going to Abbotswood and not seeing Pat sitting, elegantly dressed, accepting visitors with her kind grace and attention.
If there is anything we can do for any of you, please call.
Carl and Leigh Seager

Pat's wonderful "sense of humor" and "seasoned advice" will forever be remembered.
My life has been enriched because of our friendship.

We will miss you sweet smile and quick wit at Verra Springs. You were so kind to my Mother from the moment she came to VS, what a joy to spend time with you. Your rich, long life will leave wonderful memories with all who were blessed to know you.

Thank you Aunt Pat for a life time of fond memories. I will miss your annual birthday calls. You warmed all of our hearts. Rest in peace. Say hi to grandma for all of us. Love you.
