Always brought a radiance to a room. A special lady and will be sorely missed by all. Her legacy exists in her son Brian and his fine family. What a wonderful testament.

Jim, Brian, Jane & family,
We are so sorry for your loss and will keep you in our prayers. Patty was so good about keeping in touch and we will miss her. She had a special relationship with “Pee Wee” and always was so sweet to her. We are so glad we got to see her at the 50th Strickland reunion a couple of years ago.
God bless,
Steve & Carol Parker
