Yesterday

I was so sad to hear of Pat's passing. She and her husband, Bud, (Eldon) Potter, had been friends of myself and my husband, Ben Burk for many years.
We had lived in Quincy, Illinois, Seguin, Tx, Joplin, Mo. as our husbands worked together with Motorola for many years. I lost my husband last year in July, and just recently moved to an assisted living facility here in Griffin, GA and was planning to call Pat for a long talk to let her know. I was truly devastated that I had not gotten to talk with her again before her passing. My condolences to her family & friends. -- Lola Burk, Griffin, GA
