6/yrs ago Patty‘s warming smile was the first to welcome me to our neighborhood. We had many visits while looking out over our flowerbeds. She was a kind and giving person, always cheerful and content with life. She never complained and accepted what life gave her. Patty I will miss you deeply.💕
Patty was a faithful member of the Questers Sunday School Class and hardly ever missed a Sunday until she moved to an assisted living recently. She often brought her grandson, Casey to class with her and both were greatly loved by the class members. The Questers Class will welcome Casey to any of our events whenever he can come as a special memory of Patty. She will be greatly missed.
