Hi Connie and family,
I just wanted to extend sympathies for the loss of your mother. I remember when my mother was dying, it was so excruciating to see her go so slowly before our eyes. It was Alzheimer's that took her.
I did not know Pat, however, she was well known here at MISD and I would have loved to have known her! She looks like a dear lady and I am sure that you miss her!
God bless your journey, and may you be comforted by the many precious memories that you all made with her! Keep crying and keep talking about her! The two very things that are healing and helpful to us along the way.
Keep the faith,
Linda Vermeersch, RN

We are so sorry to hear about Pat, our thoughts and prayers are with Rick and his family and the entire Douglas family. We weren’t even aware that Pat was sick, this comes as such a shock. My fondest memory of Pat was standing around the piano every Christmas Eve singing carols. We are thinking of you every day, love you all.

Dear Rick and family. My deepest condolences. Enjoyed Pat at our class reunions. She was so easy to talk to and felt at ease around all of us, just like one of our own classmates. She was loved and will be missed.

Pat, Pam and I had a lovely lunch a couple of months ago outside at Vito's.
We laughed and smiled and throughly enjoyed our time together. What a precious memory to have. Pat looked great and had a sparkle in her eyes! Scott and I are so very sorry to hear of her passing. Rick, you and your family will be in our prayers.
The Lord bless you and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine upon you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.

God took you in his loving arms
He saw you needed rest
His garden must be beautiful
For He only takes the best!
