Pat and family,
How sad Bud and I were to read of Lonnie's passing. He was truly a great man. We always enjoyed his stories! When we think of the good times at St. John on the Desert, you and Lonnie always come to mind. May you know that our thoughts and prayers are with you as you grieve the loss of your loved one. May Lonnie continue to entertain those around him up above!
Always, Bud and Shari Stewart

Pat, we are very sorry to learn about Lonnie's passing. We went to Agua Caliente Park a couple of weeks ago and as we went by your house we thought about you. You and your family are in our prayers.

Sorry to read of Lonnie's passing. He was a guy I worked with at Hughes Aircraft. Always trying to better things and a very dedicated employee. I know he will be missed.

Pat, I am so sorry. I know what a struggle it has been. I remember how much fun he had at the Christmas party when I was the dog. My heart goes out to you. You did more than any could have for him. He is at rest now. Love you, Karen Bagby
