Patty Bruner was a wonderful person. I met her about 10 years ago when she called me looking for a groomer for her dog at the time Emma. She always had a smile on her face and we would talk about stuff when she came in. My prayers to the family.
I met Patty when we both were on volleyball teams at the Y many years ago. I loved her joy in life and compassion. Little did I know that just a short time later, she would lose her first husband. I considered it a privilege to pray for her over the years as her name came to my mind. May the memories of joy and laughter and her great faith be her legacy. continued prayers,
I met Patti in 2014 at work. She immediately made me feel welcome since I was new to the Wichita area. She was a wonderful caring lady with a beautiful smile and an infectious laugh. I am so sorry for her families loss, she will be greatly missed by all. Cathy Bateman
