Rest in peace, Aunt Mary. I and my sisters Debby and Sheri have many fond memories of visiting you and Uncle Charley and our cousins in New Orleans when we were kids. You brought joy into our lives. Thank you and may God be with you.

To my dear sister, Mary. May you rest in peace. Rest is thine and sweet remembrance is mine. Your loving brother, Frank Patton

Regarding my dear Aunt Mary, known for her beauty and resemblance to my father, Frank Patton... Death is such an enemy and brings a 'sting' of sorrow. But may the scriptural thought that "All those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out..." (John 5:28, 29) bring the family comfort and hope at this sad time. Aunt Mary is in a safe place, God's memory. This, however does not minimize the fact that sadness accompanies the loss of dear Aunt Mary. Please know that all of you are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time. We love you all. With our heartfelt love and deepest sympathy...
