Patricia Rae Holmes

To my dear that I have acquired through Patty.....Jim, Amy, Brenda with their children and spouses; along with Mary and Lori and Gary (in which I wish I had more time with all of you). Thank you Jim for welcoming me into your home and making me feel part of you family. Amy and Brenda...you made me feel like a sister. My heart breaks with all of you and every day I miss this lovely woman and her smile. To see her for the first time and the transformation over time of what she did of miracles....People would not understand.....She spoke...she got up and danced with Jim her last dance and it brought tears to my eyes...she smiled and remembered her children and especially her grandchildren by calling out their names.....I say a miracle of a disease that is so rare....I am so touched by all of you!!!! My emotions are hard to keep a work/life balance away but in this case, NO!!!! I have seen to many wonders and so many glorious things between a patient and family and a disease process that beat all odds. She knew who all of you and she finally let go when she know that all of you were together at the end!!!!! I am so blessed to have been part of your lives and hope to be part of your lives for many more years to come. I will help you with your journey's with the alzheimer's association awareness. I hope you become part to help me and educate me as well because you did.....We learned a lot from each other. I love you all. I miss her a lot and miss her smile.....words cannot explain the emptiness as much as your's too. My healing will heal and I will heal and I hope healing soothes over time......

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Greg,

She was a beautiful and wonderful classmate! I treasure the good times we had in school and at Grace Lutheran church in Eau Claire. May she rest in peace. Yes, Lord, let it be so.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Grandma Patty holds a special place in our hearts. Genuine, loving and kind. She had a special way of making everyone feel happy and loved, especially our daughters. Thank you for sharing her. Bless your family.

Take comfort in knowing that you now have a special guardian angel to watch over you. We will all miss her never ending smiles.
