On Saturday May 19,2012- I went to work in the morning, worked until noon. When I finished work went to hospice to visit my dear friend Pat, she was so very frail and would stop breathing, I knew it wasn't going to be long. I stayed with her for about 1 1/2 hours..kissed her, held her hand and cried like a big baby. Talk to her and hoped that she could hear me. I left hospice, picked up my mom and went to the cemetary to put fresh flowers at my dad's grave. Coming back from Hebron, my phone rang..it was Pat's brother letting me know that Pat has passed on. Farmgirl sisters.....thank you so much for all of your prayers and support for my friend. It has been a very trying time with my dad passing 3 weeks ago and now my dear friend.
God Bless You- friends!!

So sorry to learn of Pat's loss, Lori--I know she is in a better place, and she slept away peacefully with friend and family around her. Wish that for all of us. I am sorry for the loss of a dear friend and your father, so close together, but you will persevere and remember them in these long still days of summer.

Lori-
Praying that you can find comfort in the memories that you shared with Pat, and knowing that she is basking in all of HIS Glory now.
Peace be with you and with Pat's family. I know things have been rough for you lately. Sometimes it may seem more than you can bear- but please know that we are here for you in any way we can be- to listen and chat and send hugs and support your way.
Hugs,

Lori,
How wonderful for you that Pat wants you to have her car. By the sounds of all things here- you certainly deserve it. You are a wonderful friend and neighbor and I am sure it makes her feel good knowing that it will go to you, a friend that will appreciate it. In this terrible situation, I bet that it is a comfort to Pat to be able to see that everything she has worked for and lived for is being given to the people and organizations that SHE chooses, not that her things are just being ransacked through once she is gone.
Continued Blessings for Pat's comfort and Peace and for you, for all that you have done.
Hugs,
~Laurie

Lori, I was so surprised to hear that she was going into Hospice. When I last talked to you it was kind of up and down. So glad you've been able to spend so much time with her and that Nat got to see her. I have been keeping you all in my prayers. If you need anything, call!
