God Bless You Patti! I’m really glad I got to know you last summer at the District office and sincerely appreciate all the help and advice you’ve given me.
Please accept my sincere sympathy in the loss of such a “Great Lady”. I had the opportunity to work with Patti on several occasions within her employment with the USPS. She was a dedicated, sincere employee and very efficient at her job and helped me several times in regards to consumer affairs.

We are saddened to hear about Patti. We are thinking of you and pray that you will find comfort.

Harris & family-
Remembering Patti fondly from your time living near Epiphany. Enjoyed being Patti’s stylist when you lived here.We were just reminiscing recently of the great time we’d had at your house for a Christmas party. We had a group of 12 gals we called “Club”. You & Patti hosted a Pitch card party for us. Not sure how we squeezed 24 people together, but remember we had such a great time.
Our thoughts are with you & your family. Remembering Patti’s great smile & zest for life…she was always fun to visit with.
With our deep sympathy-
Joe and Pat Zens

Harris, My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family during this difficult time. I’m so sorry for your loss. Family and friends will help you get through this. Patty may gone but she will never be forgotten. Your memories will go on forever and I’m sure you have many! God Bless your family and take care!
So sorry to hear about Patti’s passing. We enjoyed being neighbors with you so long ago near Spencer. May God bless you in this trying time.
Harris, I am so very sorry. Patty was such a special person in so many ways. I had not seen her in a long time, but think often of the time spent with her, and with the two of you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I pray that you and your family will be comforted and strengthened. Kathy
God bless all of the Larsons and the McGregors. I still take the Kimball paper and was so saddened to see of your loss. I only knew Patti as a young girl, but sounds like she was a wonderful young woman as well. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
