I had the pleasure of working for her and Mr Clifton several years back. She became one of my food friends that I could never forget. We had some great conversations over the years and u enjoyed her tremendously. She was as funny as funny could be and very wise. My condolences to her family.

Dear Kim, Steve, Eddie, Todd and family, my heart is breaking for you at this time. Pat was a dear friend to me and James. James and Kenneth were in the same grade in school and were friends from childhood. We spent many an hour together at church and always enjoyed them. Pat and I remained friends after our husbands had passed away and she had moved. I loved her like a sister and will miss our talks. Please accept my deepest sympathy. She is together with Kenneth again and they are playing and singing. Love you all.
