May the prayers and comfort of family and friends surround you to help during this difficult time. I was privileged to work with Patty for many years. She was a phenomenal nurse and a beautiful person. She made the world a better place and I look forward to the day I see her again in heaven.

Please accept my deepest sympathy. Patty was a wonderful nurse and a very kind person. Always had a smile. I administered I.V.I.G. to her at IRMC before I retired four years ago.

Dear Brian and Craig,
You and your families are in my thoughts and prayers.
Patty was such a loving and caring Mother when you were my 5th grade students at VBE and when I would see her in the years since she was always proud of you.
With deepest sympathy,
Jeanne Fore-Moran

My heart is in Florida with you all. I would give anything to be there for Patty's service. I already miss knowing she is there for me to call. Our family enjoyed the annual visits that your family made to Tennessee and the "special love" our families share. Our love and prayers are with you all this week and in the days ahead. She and Gabby are together again and I am sure he had something funny to say when she got to heaven. We love you all!!!
