    I have known Patty for a long time. She and her family were next door neighbors to my grandparents for many years when I was young. Patty and I also worked at Gerbes at the same time when I was in high school. I think Patty was at her happiest when she worked at the Primary School with all of the little kiddos. She always had a smile on her face and a good words for everyone. I offer my condolences to the family.

    I was so sorry to see that Patty had passed away. Buddy used to come visit Ron and I when Ron was alive. So sorry for the loss of your mother. May the promise at John 6:40 bring a measure of comfort to the family at this difficult time .
