God bless Patsy. I will miss her every day. She was first my friend and then became the best Mom I could ask for after loosing my real Mom. I am at a loss for words since I still can't believe she is gone. I am just so greatful she passed peacefully. I know she is finally with my Dad and they are all dancing in Heaven. Patsy was such a beautiful woman, a dedicated wife, a wonderful friend and a loving Mom (I won't use the word Step since she was far more than that to me)! I will miss her!!! Love, Zee

Frances, Doris and Judy, I will always remember the good times Patsy and I had going through school together. We were great friends and did a lot of laughing together. The pajama parties were special. You have a special family and I will keep you in my prayers. GOD BE WITH YOU.
