God's peace and comfort over Ms. Pat's family. She was a wonderful neighbor 2 doors down from me and lived there since I was born. She knew my family, well and was excited about upcoming projects for the neighborhood that I've been endeavoring. She provided some history, there, worth preserving. I pray for its success, and we'll be sure to give tribute to her for staying and maintaining her property, in spite of the surrounding abandonment. The Gooch Family loves you. www.memorialservicemusicbylisagooch.webs.com
