Aunt Patricia, I know we did not talk much because of our distance. I remember the last we spoke. I was so glad to hear your voice because it had been a while, and we talked for a while, and I mentioned to you that I would love to come and visit you, but I see God had a better plan for you until we meet again you go ahead and rest. I Love You, Auntie

Sister Pat
Was one of a kind, she was fashionable, a spiritual saint, a wife, a mom, sister, grandmother, great grandmother and a great friend. Pat had many gifts, she was an interior designer, a stylist, a prophetess and an encourager. Pat we will miss you so much but I know you’re in the hands of our loving savior and reunited with your family and we’ll see you at our appointed time.
