Bill, and all of Trish’s family our deepest condolences. Whenever I was around Trish, she always had a smile. She always had a laugh, and she never had anything negative to say about anyone. Trish was always most at home in the country. She was a country girl through and through. She loved her life and she had a deep love for her family. She has now at peace. Can you imagine the reunion in heaven when her sister Cheri and Wendy met her. I can just hear the laughter now and all the visiting. She was a pretty neat lady. You don’t need me to tell you that may she rest in peace.
