Joanne:
I hope you and your family will accept condolences not only from me but from my entire family. My son Nick will forever remember your Grandmother (Oma) as having been so kind as to make him a very special blanket when he was first born. My brother Roger sends his sympathy and said "Dot Patton was one of the finest women I have ever met. Although I haven’t seen her in years, I remember her fondly from my teens. She was intelligent, articulate, had a great sense of humor and I will always remember our conversations together – they brought me to a new level of appreciation." and my sister Suzanne (in Florida) sends her sympathies as well.
I will always treasure those weekends I would sleep over her house to visit with you and she was just always smiling and so very kind to me. Always made me feel like a part of the family.
Love,
Michelle Daugherty (Bourdeau)
