I remember shopping at Stater Brothers as a kid and always seeing Patsy, she was always friendly to my family ,and when I was 18 I got hired at that store I then got married and had a baby she was so thoughtful she gave me this beautiful crystal cake plate,and she made me the most beautiful baby blankets , and that was 8 yrs ago. I will truly miss her too. but we were very thankful to know her and our hearts go out to you family. God Bless
