So sorry about aunt Pat. She was such a nice and loving lady. We loved her very much. I keep picturing her up in heaven fishing with uncle Alvie and Bounce. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family.

I am very sorry to hear that your Mom passed away. She was such a nice woman with a wonderful laugh. I still remember stopping by your house and having brief chats with both your Mom and Dad. It was always quite enjoyable…Unfortunately it’s the time in our lives that this is going to happen as it happened to our parents and their parents… and so on. I think you get my drift. Please accept my deepest sympathy and know that your parents our now together again. Take care…

To my cousins, we will forever miss Aunt Pat. We have such wonderful memories of both her & Uncle Alvie, as they were host & hostess at our wedding 42yrs ago. We spent many Sat.nites in our earlier yrs playing pitch together with so much laughter as your dad would walk around his chair for good luck & your mom serving yummy food. We loved them both so much & we love you. God Bless.
Will miss my Aunt Pat. To my cousins, I wish you fond memories of your time with your mother. She is at peace. Love you all!!
Our thougths and prayers are with all of Pat’s family. I would run into Pat and Alvie 3 or 4 times a year at Walmart, No Frills, etc. It was always such a joy to visit with them.They were always so happy and full of smiles.
