Paty u were such a beautiful person. The world is going to miss you but u make heaven a better place to be . I know u will be truly missed by all the people that u met along the way. May u RIP and suffer no more I m so so sorry for your family for their loss
Paty may have been small in stature, but she had a huge heart and long encompassing arms.
We are so sorry for the family’s loss.
Thank you for having been a part of our lives. We are all richer because of that. You will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to all who have had the privilege of knowing you, of loving you.
You never looked back, you never complained,
You never let hardship, keep you restrained.
We saw through your eyes, Jesus” wisdom and power.
You showed us God’s grace, at its finest hour.
You were humble, and gifted, and patient with us.
You were just who we always wanted to be.
We asked for your healing, so you’d stay here with us,
But God knew you were tired, so He set your soul free.
Now we won’t waste a minute, “wishing” life to be fair.
We’ll trust, as you did, in God’s answer to your prayer.
Please look in our eyes, and see from our hearts, we know
You are with us although we’re apart.
And if you see tears-don’t worry we’re fine, we just feel so special,
That God let you be ours for a time.
We are so sorry for you loss Ron and family. Peace and the Love of Jesus be with all of you.
Condolences from Jeff & Pascale. We love Paty. Pat loved the world.
See you at the big match.
XOXO
To know you was to love you, Paty.. You were a friend to all, and never too busy for anyone who needed comfort or caring. I will have a very large hole in my heart dear friend. REST IN PEACE. Until we meet again you will have a special place in my broken heart. Love and condolences to your wonderful family. Jean and Doug
Patty always lived life like I wish I could. Loving ,compassionate, genuine. Knowing her was a gift to me from God.
RON and FAMILY, Ken had the pleasure of knowing Paty for a long time working at the Fire Department, however I first met Paty when a group of us took a motorcycle trip to Branson. I didn’t really know anyone, but she treated me like she had known me for years. That’s how Paty was, A TRUE ANGEL!! ?? RIP Paty Pain Free Forever!! Love to The Yeager and Bristow Families
