What an adventure to travel to Machu Picchu in the 1960's. I still have memorabilia from their trip there years ago. Pat - you were always one of my favorite people.

My condolences to all the family, I´ve known the Burchills for years and have heard a lot of great stories (good ones).
Patsy put up a good fight and had a terrific caregiver (Sue) that stood by her side. She will be missed.
