I only had the privilege of meeting Ms Patti once back in the spring. I could feel the love of her family as we enjoyed one of her good days over lunch. I was the outsider and she went out of her way to welcome me to the table. Prayers for peace and comfort for her many friends and family

Words can’t express the woman my mom was! The kindest, most self-less person to ever walk this earth. I don’t say that just to say it, it’s 100% the truth. Her life was a testimony to the way God calls us to live- serve others, show kindness, treat others the way you’d like to be, live so others can see Jesus. She’d always say, “Katie, you may be the only Jesus someone sees.” I pray I can live my life to make her proud. She will be missed every second of everyday! I know her mansion in heaven looks just like something out of Southern Living Magazine like we discussed! I know her crown is bigger than she can carry! Love you, Mom! I will miss you always!

I only knew Tricia 5 years, but in that short time I learned that she was a beautiful soul! One of the sweetest, kindest, giving souls I've known. I was made to feel like family when with her. Rest in Heavenly peace sweet girl!
