I will miss Patti's smiles and sometimes grunts of "I can't or not now" during therapy. But no matter what she always check on me at least once in awhile to make sure I was doing alright. She will be missed. Meg her OT

Patti was always a gentle soft spoken Christian sister I met at First Assembly as a teenager. The character she carried needs to be shared.
