Dear Bob, Thank you so very much for your call yesterday. Our prayers and support are with you and your family. Certainly, we cannot know the intensity of your loss at this time even as we know your faith elevates you from death to resurrection and eternal life. In remembering Patt, we cannot picture her with any expression other than the warmest smile or the deepest heartfelt laugh with her wonderful sense of humor. With these fond memories and with your awesome love and faith, we are sustained in the palm of God's hand. (Why are we telling you this for---we am only stating the obvious. The truth which you and Patt know so well.) Always call if we can be of any assistance at any time. Love, Jerry and Gayle Piche'

Pat was such a beautiful lady! Her kindness and friendship I will deeply miss! Her smile and laughter and great sense of humor made her the best! You could tell she had great love for her kids, grandkids and especially you Bob! I know this will be a tough time for all, but having those wonderful memories of Pat must always be remembered and shared constantly. I know she would not want us to do anything else.



Bob, know that I and my family are here for you as your friends. The loss of someone so loved is always hard, but the pain lessons as time goes. Keeping the memories of her alive in any manner is the key!



We send our love and prayers to you Bob and your family and pray God's blessings on all of you! Peace be in your hearts as Pat is truly with God and in no more pain!



Love and prayers - Terry, Kent and Nina Pierce
