We still miss you here on the mountain!

Pat was known as the local "home depot"- whatever you needed Pat always had it. I called him my home depot man and I will miss him terribly. One of my favorite memories was when he and Josh were cutting down trees in my pasture and we ended up the day with my grandkids launching apples from the top of the pasture. Fun day! I'll also miss the breakfast getaways with Steve, Pat and me. The mountain misses him! And Patty!
