I was fortunate to meet Patsy when she was at Hellen Caro in 98/99. She took me under her wing and made me laugh everyday. She could always see the positives in everything. Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

To my dear Patrice, Joann, Chuck and Uncle Eddie, my words can't express the hurt that I am feeling for you all. God knows your hearts. Please know that all of you and other family members are in my thoughts and prayers. Our families have shared some beautiful memories together over the years. Memories that will stay etched in our hearts forever. I thank God for that daily. I have often thought of each of you and wondered how you are doing. All grown up now with families of your own. We all have been blessed. This leads me to my dear Aunt Patsy. She had a special way of showing her love for others. Chuck and I spent allot of time together growing up. Aunt Patsy always could tell we were up to something. She would tell us that she has ESP. That would usually do it for us. She loved me just like I was her own son. A special love that only a mother could provide. My aunt was a remarkable woman. She was full of life and humor . Always had kind things to say. She will be truly missed. My hope is that in this time of sorrow, that Gods comfort will fill each of your hearts with the love and joy that she had for each of you. God Bless you all.
