Dear Children. We are very sorry to learn about Patrice's passing. She was our good neighbor for several years. She took good care of her father and how she loved her little dogs! She was proud of you and talked about you often! Comfort and blessings to all as you move forward without her. Tom and Nancy Brown
I am so saddened to learn of Patrice's passing . We grew up together as classmates and friends . I always enjoyed being in her company. Patrice always had a glow about her and perky mannerisms that I so admired . She was a beauty and always greeted me with a smile, warmth and kindness . I will always have special memories of Patrice. Family, I am thinking of you . Susan Andrea
I worked with Patrice at WPCC years ago. She was always so sweet, kind, and fun. I have thought of her often over the years. I am so sorry for your loss.
Prayers to the family on this loss. Sorry to hear about this and Patrice was a caring and loving individual.
Such fond memories of Patrice when we were children and in high school. Later in life she lived across the street from my Mom and Dad. Prayers of comfort for her family members.
I'm so sorry to hear this. We were childhood friends and Scouts together, and shared many experiences when we were older. She was someone I was proud to call a friend. My sympathy to all of her friends and family.
You will be greatly missed by all of us at The Willows and by a special 4 legged one too. 🙏❤
RIP Patrice.
