Goodbye Mom
You passed away.
It's hard to go on.
I think of you today
and feel so alone.
How can I go on
without you near,
when you died leaving me
nothing but tears?
My body feels numb.
My heart burns with pain
I took like for granted;
I though you would always stay.
I remember you as goofy, as silly as my best friend.
Everytime I saw you,you always greeted me with a smile.
I know you would want us to wipe away our tears,
to go on with life,to take it
from here.
Mom, Ill forever miss you.
God bless you, my loving mother.
It's time to say goodbye,
but my love to you I will always send.

Dear Glenn & Family
We have just heard of Patty's passing. There are no words that can express how sorry we are for the loss of your "True" Best Friend, Wife and Mother.
Ken and I have so many loving memories of Patty not only from Grade School, but throughout High School and the many years we lived on St. Louis. We are keeping you and your family in our prayers.
Please express our deepest sympathy to Pattys' Sister's and family
May the promise of Prayer guide you today and always
Sincerely,
Mr & Mrs. Kenneth Shelton & Sons

Dear Glenn, Tiffany, JR, Jackie and Mike, I still think about your Mom all the time. I remember we would always laugh at each other from accross the room and only her and I would know what we were laughing about. I remember that fun look in her eyes. That is what I like to remember most. I love you all very much and know that if you ever need anything, Dave and I are here.
Love,
Beth

Dear Glenn, Tiffany & Jackie,
Just heard about your Mom from a new insurance client (Charles, who works for you Glenn)
I was so surprised to hear and very saddened.
Patty was Tommy's first ever "bowling coach" back when he was 3 years old. She will be missed by many people but I know not as much as she will be missed by your immediate family.
We will say a prayer - it is never too late for prayers.

It was shocking to hear of Patty's passing. She was the first person to ever teach me how to do a back bend. She would always say to me, "Mary, DON'T give up"! It's funny how we have our own memories that we carry with us through life. How one thing said can mean so much to another. Well, I have held on to that advise through-out my life. I never give up! And it's made all the difference in my life. It was good to see so many friends at the wake that have showed their support to Glenn and his family at this time of sorrow but also too, showing their love to our friend Patty. She will be missed. I will never forget her.

Jackie and Tiffany,
When dad told me about your mom's passing, I wanted to come home and see you. I'm sorry that I couldn't make it, but I've been thinking about both of you and your dad a lot lately.
My dad told me that the funeral was beautiful, and he'd never seen so many flowers for someone that was so loved in his life.
I know it's hard right now because of the shock of everything and how quickly it happened, but you really have to celebrate her life and hold onto the memories, cause' she's never gone from our hearts if we can remember her. She was a kindhearted, wonderful person.
She will be missed, but never forgotten.

Glenn, Tiffany and Jackie,
You must know and remember forever how special Patty was. She was not only special as a wife, mom, and friend, but she was a very special employee. If Waveland could have 25 Pattys, it would be the most well run bowling center on the planet. The way she treated everyone who crossed her path was remarkable. She would tell me that some person on the phone was so rude and mean that "I killed em with kindness", they would always come around. I wish I could take credit for how she handled people, but i can't. It was all Patty. The best we can all do is to learn from her. I know that working with her all of these years has made me a better person. I will remember her always.

Dear Glenn, Tiffany & Jackie -
Our deepest sympathy to you and all the family. I am sure Patty will be greatly missed but her spirit will live on in all of you. It has been a long time since I have seen all my Pruchnick cousins but I do remember the fun times we had at Uncle Dan and Aunt Elaine's parties.
May God be with you at this difficult time.
Sincerely, your cousin Diane and Family (Jim, Austin & Andrew)
