Hi Chris & Chad - I'm sure you won't remember me, but I am one of the nurses who took care of your mom Pat several times at Mercy Medical Center. I first took care of her during her cancer treatment for many weeks, and then when she was hospitalized in the last year of her life. And I remember meeting both of you boys (men) several times. How special your dad was through all of her treatments. He was always upbeat and smiling, even though I knew he was scared many times. What wonderful parents you were blessed with. One of the bests things about being a nurse is getting to meet and care for wonderful people like Pat and Bob. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Susan

Bob was a neighbor of mine at Affinity Apartment in Eagan, Mn. Bob was kind and friendly and a joy to visit with as we both enjoyed the elicipital bikes in Affinity's work out room. Always smiling and gracious. I will miss seeing him at Affinity.

Good bye dear friend, it was my deepest pleasure to journey in life with you, Pattie and your two boys and their wives. What a treat it was, a great ride. We will continue with your memory to shed light on our path. RIP!!!

Chris & Chad,
My husband Rory and I only spoke to your Dad a couple of times. He was generous kind. Friendly.and funny. We bought his house on Blairsferry Crossing. We sill love our house@ it is a treat to have Jerry and zvirginia 2 doors down.. We lived on Cress Parkway for almost 38 years and looked other houses for 20 years. We fell in love with the house and made an offer the first night we looked at it. I will always remember sitting down at the dining room table here and signing the papers for the this house. Our old house was too small for a dining room table..I told our realtor I would love to have a table that beautiful. The next day our realtor called to see if we were interested in the table and other furniture and wall art. That is when I meet your Dad. He was so nice and sogenerous when we decided what items we would take.
I have heard wonderful things about your Mom from neighbors. We are members of zLovely Lane and still senjoy your parent's donation on the wall there.
Please know that we love your parent's house and will do our best to keep it up.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this difficult time. May your happy memories help sustain you and may God's Grace be with you all.
