Sonny, Larry and Families,
Miss Pat is an angel which we had for a time. She was called home and is in a better place. She was our neighbor and friend for over 20 years and we loved her dearly.
Her heart and spirit will live on and we are all better for having known her, even for awhile.

I knew Pat as a warm, friendly, and giving caregiver for a resident at the Life Care Center of Yuma. She also volunteered at the facility, putting her heart and soul into helping both the residents and staff. Her devotion to others will always be remembered. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
