Shelley Stiles says
My deepest condolences to Pat’s family. Death is never and easy thing to deal with. Words can not express the pain and sadness we feel when we lose those who we have held close to our hearts for so long. In the very near future, we are promised that soon we will be reunited with our loved ones again by means of an earthly resurrection. (John 5:28,29). What a joyous time that will be to be able to see and hold our loved ones again! Until that time, Keep close to your hearts all the smiles and wonderful times spent together. May the “God of All Comfort” be with you in the difficult days ahead. (2 Corinthians 1:3-4) Thoughts and prayers are with you.
