Hi, thank you all very much. What a delight in seeing the write-ups. I spoke about it in my tribute to Pat. I'd be happy to share that with you all and/or a holy card with her information. I told Peter this, but I did give Patsy her 2 cartons of NOW cigaretttes back with matches. She had been off cigarettes since 1/6/06. Pat can have a smoke with her sisters and brother!!!!! Thank you again for your kind words. Let me know if you would like to read the tribute.

I can hear Patsy's laugh and see her smile. We have beautiful pictures of Patsy in our family wedding albums. I wish I could be there in person to honor Patsy and all of the Bush Family. I have 4 little ones of my own and cannot make the journey, but my thoughts and wishes are with you. With Love, Mary Beth Allison, Charlotte North Carolina
