Patty, my dear sweet life long friend, I will miss you. Your physical pain is over now and you can rest easy with the Lord.
I became acquainted with Pat while she and my mother were both residents at the rehab center in Pleasant Hill. Pat was in the room across the hall from my mom. When Mom passed away on Feb. 22, Pat was deeply affected, and volunteered to play the piano at her memorial we gave at the rehab center. Pat played beautifully, and was such a blessing to our family! Her gift of music, her smile, her love, and her kindness to my family will be deeply missed. Blessings to her family. Terry
Pat loved joking around and having fun. If she was around you would be guaranteed that laughter was going to break out at any moment. She’s having the time of her eternal life. All our love to the family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Pat was my very best friend. I am in shock and saddened. I only just received the message of her passing. Because of the virus, I couldn’t even visit her. She was so funny, & we had such great times together. It will take me awhile to realize she is no longer with us. Pat, Dollie, & I were like the 3 Musketeers back in Harrisonville. I will love you forever and always my dear friend Pat!
