Mr. Jimmy,
I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet wife. You were so attentive to her needs and took exceptional care of her. I enjoyed visiting and talking with you. May you feel God's comfort.

God saw you were getting tired, and a cure was not to be. So he put his arms around you, and whispered, "Come to me." With tearful eyes we watched you pass away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating. Hard working hands laid to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us that He only takes the best.

Pat is one of the most thoughtful, compassionate, truly awesome person that I know. She took care of my kids from when they were born to school age. I had it made with Pat or "Nana" as my kids called her. She did so much for me and the kids. I have a fond memory of walking in the house to pick up the kids and found her coloring. She said it was good for the soul and it is. I color now when I need to put myself in a good place. I am sorry to the family for your loss because it is a great loss!
