I'm Stephen Ausmus Jr. Sheridan, Oregon didn't have the pleasure of my growth around or near Aunt Pat except a couple summers visiting at 15 &16 yrs of age having breakfast at Cabrillo Lanes Bowling Alley, working tomatoes, or me hiding out in Wesley's not tending to the tomatoes, brief as it was she always gave me a hug put her hands on my cheeks and said you make sure and come back. I regret not being able to do that throughout her life Rest In Peace Aunt Pat!!!
