To Jacci & Joni,
I am so sorry that I could not attend Patsy's funeral. Jack, Patsy and graduated together from Caney High School in 1949. She made Jack a very good wife and homemaker. I always loved to hear Patsy laugh, it always seemed to come from way down inside.

We loved her and will miss her very much. My love comes to you both.

Jacci-We've never met, but at one time our mothers were very good friends. (My mom is Martha Sloan.) They taught together several years and I've heard your moms name my entire life! Your mom meant a lot to my mom and she wanted me to let you know that. We are both very sorry for your loss.
