A true Angel

We have truly lost an angel. Patsy was an amazing aunt! Every time they came down from Vegas, it was always such a joy to see them. My aunt patsy was the most loving, energetic, happy person I've ever met. I never saw her without her smile, or her incredible laugh. Her energy was so contagious! I remember when I was a child, and the family would go to Vegas, my aunt pat would take us site seeing everywhere. She was always ready to take a new adventure, with no hesitation. As I grew older, I really got to know the person she was.She would talk about her passion for teaching, and how much she loved all her students. Her personality was one of a kind. She always joked around for holidays and family get togethers. She loved to make everyone laugh. I will miss her "Camping Karaoke", she would always battle it out with everyone, in which she always won at the end of the night!! I will miss her "promise no crossings", and the love I saw in so many ways for my uncle mark, her beautiful children and of course lil AJ. She was truly a role model in my life, and I will carry her in my heart forever. Life for everyone will never be the same. I can only ask God to grant us peace of mind and give us strength to heal from losing this beautiful person. Now I have an angel, please watch over me, and guide me. Rest in peace, one day we will meet again in the kingdom of heaven. I love you Tia Pat.

Walking with Jesus

In the song "They will know we are Christians by our love", it must have been written for Patsy. She truly loved all with an open smile, open heart, non-judgemental attitude, a song on her lips, and a positive outlook on life. She amazed me with her innocence and pure hearted goodness. Patsy was always fun to be around, good to all her friends, and always meeting up with friends when we all went to lunch. I know she walked with our Lord because she glowed. I will miss you, Patsy, you left a lasting impression on me and so many other people. It was fun shopping for clothes with you when we last got together............
