To Pat’s family, I remember so many good times with all of you and your Mother. She was so fun on the playground at Cove school. It’s a heartbreaking time and you will think of her all the time. Just know she is with you always. Treasure all the memories you have.
Dear Lillian and family, Sorry to hear of Pat’s passing. She was a joy to all who knew her. I remember her from the day we met when I was only 8, and she brought much love and laughter to all of our family. A great friend and good neighbor, she will be missed. God give you all comfort, support and grace during your time of sorrow. My love to all of you.
I was so sorry to hear about Pat’s passing. She has been fighting her battle for a long time and she is at rest now. I was going to come to the viewing but I see it is only 12-2 on Tuesday and with my work schedule I don’t think I will be able to get away. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.
“Grandma Cupcake” you will forever be deeply missed by many… You were an amazing woman. Wendi and I will never forget all our fun times with you! Best wishes to all…
Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Fathers house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going” May Pat rest in His promise.
