Dear Ginger & family, We will always remember dear Patse with fondness, as she was one of the first people our family met when arriving in Heber. In particular, her humor and smile were ever-present! May God comfort you all at this time with loving memories, and His hope in the Resurrection. With our love, Vicki & Al, and Betty & Bud Bridges
