It's almost been a year since I lost my funny friend. We so enjoyed having our little book club; discussing our current favorite books. We laughed as she would talk about sleep-walking at the Lakehouse and find herself eating and getting crumbs in her books, spilling "Sonic Xtra LG vanilla coke with Xtra vanilla and a cup of ice" on her newest book. I miss her so much. She was a tough fighter in her battle with cancer. When I went to say goodbye at her Mom's house the Monday before she died she could still look at me and smile. We said our goodbyes and it was a Blessing to have been able to do that. I told her if I was lucky, I would see her in Heaven but I definitely knew she would be there with her Dad and Denyse. I'm so sorry to her family for their great loss because Pat was a great person. She is still missed by me and thought of as I finish each book and think "I wish I could talk to Pat in person about this book", but I'll continue to talk to her in my heart. Love, Bee 615-479-2754
