We are saddened to hear of our friend Pat's passing. We feel blessed to have known her. A beautiful woman with a great smile. Glad we had a great Thanksgiving dinner with Pat & Wendy, this past year. Enjoyed every minute. Great times when she joined us on our friends get-together-nights also. Moments cherished and kept close to our hearts. God bless our good friend Wendy and the whole family during this difficult time. We will miss her.
