Patricia and family,
I'm so sorry for your loss except that we know where your Mom has gone! Heaven gets sweeter every day. Please know you and your family are in my prayers. I really enjoyed visiting your Mom when she was here in Waxahachie! She was very sweet to me and we loved talking about my friend Patricia and her family. She was a proud mother and grandmother. Love to you all. Carol
