Bobby, I send my Condolences to you & the rest of Trish's family and friends. She was my Grandmother's next door neighbor & would always check in on her. She had the sweetest smile. Always telling me about her grandbabies...who she loved so much!! The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved ones are safe in the hand of God.

A big piece of my heart is missing today. I am a better person for knowing Trish. She was my family, when my family was miles away. Her love and concern for others, flowed from her cup like a waterfall. She loved The Lord, and he loved her back.
