Patsy,My heart goes out to you and the kids. I have known you and Clinton for a long time and I can truthfully say I have never known two more dedicated and loving people of their God, family and friends. When you lose good friends and loved ones it only serves to make you more homesick for Home where we will all be together. May He give you the comfort you so richly deserve. I love you dearly and you are in my prayers.
