Hi Everyone;

I was so sorry to hear about "Patty" I know 1st hand how you feel going through everything, with your Mom. When my Mother, Fran, was on her death bed, a friendly family face would of been great to see, however, when time passes & contact is lost, or forgotten, it is hard to do..
God Bless all of us!

I remember Pat very fondly and have missed her in recent years. We served together on the Vestry of St. Andrews Episcopal Church during the interim years between Ralph Brooks and Bruce Robison. She was faithful and supportive, with a great love for the parish.

We had prayers to remember her this morning at St. Andrew's Church--and with much love and thanksgiving for all that she and Herb and your family shared with all of us. Blessings and peace. May she rise in glory.
