I was a MHS Classmate of Pat, She was a friend to everyone and extremely bright, I knew she would do something commendable in her life... I was a good friend to Vince also, In fact I have something he gave me I will have all my life... He broke my collarbone during football practice and have a cartilage bump, I treasure it now... You did a excellent job with Pats obituary especially the final words... You had wonderful parents...
My kindest Regards & Sympathies,
