Pat & Keith,
So sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing, Pat. You talked about her often so I know you were very close to her. You took such good care of her too. She was lucky to have you as a daughter. How nice it was for her to live near her children and her grand-children. She is at peace now.

Dear Pat, Keith and Family,
We were saddened to hear the news of your mother’s passing. It is so hard to lose your mom; we all know that. The legacy in grandchildren and great grandchildren speaks for itself. The comfort of so many family members cherishing the memories of their mother, grandmother and great grandmother will lessen the heartache of the loss as days go on. She’ll remain “Forever in your Hearts”! Our prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family.
Love, John, Deb, Andy, Brittany and Ryan
