It breaks my heart to read of Ms. Pat passing away!! She was my teacher in elementary school. She would pick me up for church on the nights my Pop couldn’t take me.

Cousin Pat, I am going to miss you so very much. Whenever I would visit the farm a high point was stopping by to visit and catch up. Rest peacefully, dear. The impact and legacy of your life of teaching and loving your family, students and community will echo down through the years to come. Your life counted for so much! I look forward to seeing you again, in God's time.
