Pat was such a sweet lady, who will be missed dearly - I have known Pat since I was little and she was always nice and caring toward others. Praying for you all at this difficult time. May the loving memories you have bring you comfort at this time. Thinking of you.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother/grandmother was an absolutely beautiful person inside and out. She came to my home for Bible Study and was an inspiration to each of us. She will be missed by all. Personally, she was always an encourager to me and a light in a troubled world. She was a woman of enormous intelligence but had the most humble heart of anyone I knew. I know I will miss her greatly. Pat you are now with the Lord and lighting up the heavens with your beautiful presence. Love you sweet sister. Until we meet again on the streets of gold. Your sister servant, Bari

Janet and Kim- We are so sorry to hear about your Mom. I lost my mom Jan so I can relate to what you are going through. If you ever want to talk call me at 552-3824. I am keeping my grandson every day so am only working half as much as I was. Praying for you all. Sincerely-Dana and family

Jennifer, Janet, R.E., Sam:
I am sorry on the passing of Mrs. New. She was a kind lady, always friendly to me when I used to visit in their house as a young person. Sorry I did not attend the funeral - intended to come but had an issue with getting appropriate clothes together to leave after morning job.
