First and foremost, I want to say that Patsy wanted to go be with the Lord. I am deeply sorry for the loss as Pat Wayne and Milo dearly loved her. Atria staff miss them all dearly. She was clearly a very talented lady and we taught each other! She has made some beautiful blankets for her family and friends and those are to be cherished. She made those with love, and hard work! She spent endless hours doing this. She is and was a beautiful lady God Bless.

When I started working for the care department at Atria Patsy, Pat and Milo were the first ones I met working night shift and a bond was formed at that moment! I love you Patsy and I wish I had the chance to say goodbye are hug your neck one last time but our Father in Heaven needed your presence more.I guess it’s true He only takes the best because He took you. RIP Mrs. Patsy Rhodes
