I will forever cherish my time with Pat.
I know without a doubt I benefited more than she. Intelligent, funny, thoughtful and loving.
I will take her lessons with me to help others in the future.
Heaven’s Gain!

Fr. Ken, Debbie, Tim, and family. Your mother and dad were such lovely people. I am sorry for your loss as there are very few words that bring comfort now and help your loss. I will continue to pray for you all and know in my heart she is with your dad. I know Dan would have been at the funeral in a heart beat. My sincere condolences. Pam Gonzalez ( and always Dan)
