Pat, I think of you so often. So thankful for the friendship we shared.

Hi Pat!
Here it is 2023 and the the weather is changing , the flowers will be
blooming and the animals having their babies.  I miss you calling and
telling  me about your dogwoods.  
Your granddaughters keep in touch , telling about riding and soccer.
Bruce and Jamie are keeping busy .  I know you are there smiling down on us!  We love you and miss you.

Love you
Cheryl

Pat, we still miss you but know you are in a special place.
We got to know your grandaughters. Pat they are so sweet and
beautiful! Emma loves horses so kept Rueben busy(which he loved).
Oliva loves to talk.  Would love to see them more, maybe we can. I'm so glad Bruce had Jamie and the girls. They keep him busy. 
We love you
Cheryl and Rueben

You have been gone 7 months now and I grieve today as much as the day you left us, Every time I see a Jeep SVU I think of you,Everytime I drive on Bluegrass road there is a lump in my throat. Every time I drive by Lake Loudon I think of how you set Ed and me up and we watched the shooting stars. Losing him and you within a few months has been unbearable. I keep praying for some sign of enlightenment and hope but none arises,  You were such a big part of my life both with Jim and Ed, I feel gratitude for that but feel cheated that it ended so soon.  I loved and still love you like a sister but even beyond that. It might not matter where you are now but I wanted you to know trump lost the election. How I wish we could have celebrared that together.  I don't know that this is the proper forum to be writing this but I felt like it might be the closest way of reaching you. I love you Pat and there will not be a day in the rest of my life I won't think of you. Hopefully the happy times with you will overtake my deep grief and sadness.  If there is a heaven I know you have a very special place there.

Hi Patsy;

I just found out today that you have been taken away, it made me very sad and feeling a loss, and remembering so many times we have shared both laughs and serious moments on Social Media among so many mutual friends we have had together for a long time.
You will be missed, not just by all of us you mingled with, but also your wonderful family and so many friends you had everywhere; and what a beautiful tribute I have seen in your Obituary.
You were a lovely daughter, sister, wife, Mother, Grandmother, and also an essential worker by every meaning of that term, and near the end you were such a brave woman, with such grace, determination and passion, and you always had your hope and dream that one day our World will put caring, integrity and kindness as priorities above all else.  
All that being said, and as I add this,  I can't help sensing and feeling like you are right around me this moment as your spirit soars through all the Heavens above, where I am sure you have found a peace, warmth and enlightenment and all the answers so many of us seek upon living and never seem to find through all our distractions and noise.
May you rest in peace knowing you touched many who will remember you as the unique, lovely person we all knew as Patsy.

 

Dear Patsy, you were an Earth Angel who has gone to her rightful place in Heaven. I was blessed to have had you enter my life even in a small way. You were spirited, courageous, strong, kind, giving with a beautiful soul and a beautiful face. I know that you are in the hands of God and are no longer in physical pain which is a comfort. I know how hard you battled. Today I will light a candle for you but also to plant yellow sunflowers in my garden as they were one of your favourites. My tears for you will help them grow as they drip onto the petals in your memory. Rest in peace dear one, the World has lost a human foundation of what made it great and good.xxxx

From Stacey and Franz - we love you Aunt Pat and we will surely miss you here on this earth.  You were always vivacious, full of life and laughter, and a server to others.  You were the light of your family and now a light in the heavens.  We celebrate your life and honor your memory.  

God bless Uncle Bruce and the family. We love you all and pray the loving arms of the Father wrap around and give the family peace during this time. 

PAT WAS A SPECIAL SISTER, WHOM WE LOVED DEARLY.
WHEN BRUCE BOUGHT HER HOME HER SMILE LIT THE WHOLE
ROOM UP. WE FOUND HER SOUTHERN CHARM AND WIT 
A BLESSING AND LOVED HER SOUTHERN ACCENT, ESPECIALLY
ON THE TELEPHONE.  SHE WAS AN ANGEL IN LIFE AND NOW WITH THE LORD.  SHE WILL BE MISSED!  

Bruce, Jaime, Olivia & Emma,

So very sorry for your loss. Patsy was such a kind lady. My hugs, and thoughts to you all. May your memories help you through this time of sorrow. 

Sending our extended family lots of love during this terrible time. Pat was a wonderful granny, mother, mother-in-law, and wife - she will be greatly missed. 

Love, Laura, Jarrod, Madison and Hunter Gillam

Bruce and family,

Thinking of you and your family  these days.  Life passes by so fast. 
You are approximately 9 years older then me but I have a lot of good memories of our family picnics,  and water skiing.  I remember Sheila and I coming down to Ft Collins, CO. when you and Pat lived there.  Thank you to  both for that pleasant memory.  I too, remember Pat being very vivacious and full of life.  May all of these memories comfort you with your loss.

You will always be Mama Bear. I am so thankful to have known you and be loved by you. 
There’s no question you have all of Heaven erupting in laughter. 💕 You knew how to liven a room up quick with your presence. 
Love you so much Mama Bear. Rest peacefully in the arms of the Father. 

Pat was one of my dearest friends from sixth grade.  Life sent us in different directions, but we reconnected several years ago, to my great joy, on social media.   As much of that 40 year gap as possible was filled with brief notes, pictures, and a couple of treasured but brief face-to-face visits. She had so much love for her family and friends,  and our hearts break because we loved her so much.  Hold on to your precious memories.   Love and prayers.

So sorry to hear about Patsy.  She was a fun loving, sweet lady.  She will be missed.

Pat was a light in all of our lives. Her love and pride for her family and closest friends was palpable. So many memories of her laughing and cutting up with Fran, and talking about her favorite times with her grandbaby.  She fought the good fight for a long time and we loved every minute we got with her. She will be sorely missed. 

Pat brought light and love to all she met. Her greatest joy next to Bruce were Jamie, her beautiful granddaughters and all her friends! Her encouraging words to others and beautiful spirit will be missed! 

Such a special friend and soul sister.  We had some memorable road trips , NC, Panama City, Savanah..   A lot of fun, a lot of laughing, crying, singing  and silliness.  I am missing her already.   Heaven better look out, a new angel has her wings.   No more pain, and no more coughing.   Love you. 


I will never forget making cookies and working out to Jane Fonda tapes with Pat when I was a kid. I will also never forget how she was there for us when my mom was  sick. Her bright eyes and infectious smile could brighten any room. Her depth and wisdom could also bring grounding peace in times of pain. I am deeply grateful to her for being a friend to my mom. My heart is with you Bruce and Jaime. Please know I am here for you. Sending love and peace to all those touched by this loss. 

You never missed  an opportunity to tell everyone we met if together, that you brought me home from the hospital in a yellow baby blanket. I will continue to let people know you did that . I miss you terribly.  

It seems unreal that I am writing this. Patsy was my wonderful, funny, silly sister. She is one person that knew everything that there is to know about me. And she loved me anyway. She loved Emma and Olivia so much.  Everytime we talked she bragged about Bruce and told me how he took care of her every need. I will miss her so much and will love her always. I will see her again in Heaven.

Pat was my oldest and dearest friend. We shared the same profession and worked together for a time. For the last forty years we shared so much more than our work. We shared every joy, every sadness, every success and every hurdle. She was everything a friend was ever meant to be. I will miss her so very much.
