Bob, Scott, and Shorty, so sorry for your loss, Pat was a wonderful neighbor. We will miss her and sorry we can't be there with you all. We care for you all and send our love.
Pat & I worked together in the kitchen at McEndree School. She was such a nice lady. She always had a smile & a kind word. When I was going through cancer, she was always happy for any progress I made. We encouraged each other. I prayed many prayers for her. She was a great friend
