Scott, Kody and Family.. I’m so sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. She was a sweet and caring neighbor all these years. She will be missed very much. Prayers and hugs to you and family.
Aunt Trisha was such a fun aunt. I will always remember her laugh. I loved going to her house, she always made us kids feel welcomed and loved. She would send us a half dollar in the mail for our birthdays when we were kids. And as an adult I couldn't wait to get my Christmas card from her.
She will be greatly missed and forever loved!
We've known and loved you for a long time, but just say when I found out you went home to our farther I was sad because it wasn't nearly enough time even though I told kody that she has the best guardian angel and so does your son, daughter, daughter-n- law, son-n-law, grandson, all your beautiful great babies , and I can say you still left to soon...... may you rest in peace my darling. We will all see soon. I always really like pat... karry was lucky to have known and love you ....
Mrs. Pat was one of my best friends. God could not have blessed me more by putting her in my life. I will miss the laughs we always had together and the way she could always brighten my days with her kind words. She will always be so special to me and I will miss her so very much. I loved her with all my heart and am thankful for all the days we had together.
I love you pat
Me and parents work her at Walmart for a lot of year
I will always remember the good times we had in my blue Volkswagen going to football games on Friday night and then to the mini miner games on Saturday in the summers we were at Sardis ball park we always had so much fun she will be missed dearly loved last time I saw here I was at Walmart in Bryant and dropped my watch battery pat got on the floor and we finally found it we both got a good laugh out of that Scott and Sydlo your in my thoughts and prayers love you both
Scott and Sydlo. I remember your mom pulling Sydlo up and down our gravel road. She was a happy lady. You both have my prayers for peace and comfort
Thoughts & prayers are with you all.
So sorry for your loss.
Pat and I became instant friends practically on the day that we first met. We talked about everything and we spent a whole lot of time together. There was nothing that she couldn't tell me that surprised me and she always knew I would never tell any of her secrets. Thus, I knew she would never tell any of mine. It was a very good relationship. Then at some point we had to go our separate ways because I had to go to work and she had to go to work. I look at her place every time I go by wondering if she's at home knowing she's probably not because Scott had told me that she was sick. I miss her terribly and I'll miss her more as time goes on and I hate it. She's in a better place. She's not going to suffer anymore and I know how that cancer does. I will keep all of you in my prayers in my thoughts.
To my dearest granny, your wings came fast but in the most peaceful manner. Your soul has touched many hearts of family, friends, loved ones and a stranger was never a stranger after seeing your beautiful smile! You where the brightness in my darkest days. Your light filled a room brighter than the sun, moon or stars! There will never be a brightness of beauty such as yours. Your soul was and will always be the purest of kind and love for me to know! I love you granny your family will always cherish your memories
I am so sorry for your loss. I love all of my family so much. And it is a great loss when we lose one of our loved ones. God bless you all. Love Hoppy
