Ray I am so sorry for the loss of Pat, your wife and mother. I was shocked, since I didn't even know she was sick. I will miss bumping in to her around town. We always chatted up a storm. Pat was such a nice person. I have a lot of fond memories of her and her sister's from New Britain. So sorry I couldn't get to the services. I tried to find you in the telephone book, but you aren't listed. We, and also Rick wanted to send a card, and Rick wanted to call you. I hope you and your family are doing well. Sincerely, in our thoughts and prayers, Judy and Bruce Harvey.
