GUEST BOOK

We will miss our beloved Aunt Pat. We will always remember her love for life and for her family. She was a true Renaissance woman. Her talents ranged from baking to art to floral arranging, to name just a few, talents that she gracefully shared and that brought so much joy to members of her extended family. What we loved best about her, however, was her ability to touch the lives of individuals in a special, direct and personal way. Everyone who met her immediately found a true friend. She was a beautiful person inside and out. Now she joins her equally beloved George in eternal life. May she rest in peace and spend an eternity in the embrace of Uncle George.

We are truly sorry for the loss of our dear Aunt Pat. She was such a kind and caring individual. She only had nice things to say about everyone she knew and had met. She was always cheerful and enjoyed life to the fullest. Her talents were endless. We have never met anyone else with such artistic creativity. She was a unique person. We enjoyed many visits with her throughout our childhood and will never forget all those great times we had with she and Uncle George and the rest of the family. She had told us last March over the phone that she had a very blessed life, but it is all of us who were blessed by just knowing her. We know you are at peace and very happy to be back with Uncle George . We will miss you.

My mother was gracious and loving to everyone that she met. I know that she will be missed by all that knew her. My daughters were lucky to have her as a "Nana", and I was fortunate to be her daughter.
