Oh my gosh, I had no idea Pat was gone. She is my first cousin.  I’m sorry we didn’t stay in touch.  Our journey in life took us on opposite paths and far distances.  Still not a very good excuse for not staying in touch.  My condolences to all in your families.  I talked to Pat maybe two years ago and I thought she sounded good.  

Pat’s mother Clarice was my mentor as a child.  And her father Uncle Bill was so kind.  I have lost touch with Beth my godchild.  I haven’t known Dawn and Pat’s other children very well.  I know you all miss Pat a lot.  I’m sure Bob misses her the most.  I’ll pray for all of you.  ❤️
