Pat was a wonderful person. Her house always smelled like something fresh baked. Every time I saw her she got a kick out of retelling the story where my brother B.J. and I unloaded a couple pockets full of frogs on her red shag carpet. I think she has a real time catching them all.
John, Chris, and Amy I pray for healing and understanding that Pat is with her Maker now.
God's Mercy,
Jennifer and Andy Rodabaugh
