I was so saddened to here of your loss. I have worked with Patty for many years. I will always remember her fondly and with great respect. She was an amazing nurse, mother, and co worker/friend. And she always smelled so good! I'm sorry I was unable to pay my respects in person, as I was out of town. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Patty wil be truly missed by so many.
