I knew Trish (and her mom) many years ago, when the kids were very young. She was pregnant with Harley the last time I saw her at my home for a visit. I thought of her often over the years since. She was a gorgeous, vibrant girl at the time and obviously grew to become an amazing lady. She was an incredible mother in extremely difficult circumstances.....I loved her mother Helen as well (and her Irish brogue!)Love you Trish

Trish took care of my Dad for about 6 months in my home through Hospice. She was very caring to us here each day she was here and talked about her family and the love she had for them. What a terrific lady.
