May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. I just heard of Mrs. Patterson passing. She was my PE Coach in 1977. I have often thought of her especially when I go by the old HHS. May God be with you all at this time.

My deepest sympathies to the Patterson family. I just saw the notice in the paper. I always loved Mrs. Patterson as a teacher. The last time I saw her was at the memorial service for my parents. She was so supportive to me and I'll miss seeing her smile. I know she will live in memories forever.
