Oh my goodness. I am so very sad to read about the loss of this beautiful soul. Pat has been a good friend to my late mom Josie Hamby Brown, passed on 09/08/2021, for decades. Pat and her family are considered part of our family. We were so blessed to have met Pat and to be introduced to her beautiful children at the time: Ericka and baby Nicholas. Pat would have my mom to keep Nicholas for a week to be weaned from nursing. Then she had beautiful baby Alexis we so fell in love with, and Pat had my mom to also keep her to be weaned. Lastly, baby Dietrich. We were so privileged and blessed to have known Pat. Her bubbly personality and inviting Spirit. Pat, you and Josie have so much to talk about now. You both are home now in Heaven. I'm still hoping to connect with Ericka and Alexis. Please look me up on Facebook under Patricia Hamby. I love and miss you Pat. My condolences to the Biedenfeld family.

Mrs B was my choir teacher from 2011-2013 at Pershing Middle School. She was such a wonderful woman and teacher. I think of her often & am grateful she touched my life. Sending my deepest condolences to her family and friends. Rest In Peace, Mrs B.

I LOVE you Ms. B! Your encouragement during my student teaching provided me the strength to be come a fully certified Choir Teacher. So many great memories and so much growth. You were awesome to me and made me laugh constantly talking about Whole Foods and bottled water! I hate that I didn't know about your transition but I know truly that God favored you because you favored me and so many other students and aspiring educators. I thank God for you and I promise to make you proud Ms. B!!!

I'm sorry to hear about Mrs Biedenfeld. I would have been at the funeral if somebody told me about her. I have friends that were in the choir. She came to see me at my job at Randalls before she retired.

To the Beidenfeld Family,
Patsy was like a mother or a big sister to me, to us in the choir. When I became a member at our church, I was asked to join the choir. When I did, OMG! She was the Choir Director when I joined. For the short period of time she was there, she taught and helped shape and mold my spiritual life. She made singing a heartfelt experience that I will never never forget. She often helped me with guidance with my children. I will definitely miss her smiling face, her laughs and our wonderful conversations. Her laugh was contagious. She was an inspiration. I pray you all will be encouraged by all of the precious memories of her. I miss you, Patsy. Rest in Peace.

She was very warm and friendly and truly concerned about and loved the children that she mentored. She will be truly missed.
May She Rest In Heaven .

There is no greater joy than being part of Pats
life. She is a shining example of what it is to be a Christian, and a friend. I will miss her, and our late night telephone calls. She got me through many rough times and gave me so much to laugh about. A 30 year friendship like ours cannot be replaced. Until we meet again Patsy.

Losing a loved one is never easy, but our loving god promises to give the strength and courage you'll need to endure, and to cope with the pain of your loss. He also promises to hold your hand every step of the way. (Isaiah 40:29, 41:10, 13)

I am deeply saddened by the revelation of Mrs. Biedenfelds passing. I knew her as Miss Grogan when she was a relatively new Teacher at Booker T. Washington School in Texas City, Texas. Though she was not one of my teachers at school;she taught Piano classes after school several days a week. That is where I encountered Miss Grogan. I never became a Piano player of any note.But, Mrs. Biedenfeld(Grogan) has always been one of my fond memories of growing up in Texas City.
My Prayers are with her Family during this trying period. "Let Not Your Hearts Be Troubled".....She'll find a Piano Student in Heaven.
