    Leo and I were so sorry to hear of Patty’s death. I hadn’t seen her in a few years, but when the kids were growing up, we saw each other quite often. I’m sure Wesley and Travis, this will be a hard time for both of you. There is just something about Moms, that is hard to replace. It’s that little hug, tear, or of course the words of wisdom. Know that she will be watching over you every day and especially smiling at those grandchildren. She will be missed. Leo and I will be on vacation, so we are unable to come to the service.
