“How rare and wonderful is that flash of a moment when we realize we have discovered a friend” by William Rotsler.
I met Paty when I started watering their flowers while Norm and her were off on one of their many adventures. At that time, I did not realize that a beautiful friendship would develop between us.
Patty enriched my life with her enthusiam for life, her love for her family and Norm. Her joy and laughter were infectious. I’ll feel Patty’s presence in so many aspects of my life. On a shopping trip to Von Maur, a burger and Blue Moon at Tiger Tom’s, walking by the knitting yarn at Hobby Lobby. Our friendship was a precious gift and one I will treasure forever. Thanks for all the happy memories! Love you and so miss you, Patty.

Sending love and support to the entire family. Deepest condolences.
Jeannie and I first met Patty many years ago when she and Norm were visiting his son Don in Aurora, Colorado. Over the years they visited Colorado many times and we would engage in pleasant conversations filled with stories of from their latest adventure. She was a beautiful person whose presence will be missed.
I met Patty and Norm thru my dear friend Addean Middleton. They were a lovely couple and welcomed me . Tho I only met them for a few times, I knew they were wonderful people. Rest in peace Miss Patty.
