Suzanne and Kathy & Family,
First and foremost..I Love You Aunt Pat!!! She is a amazing person as I'm sure y'all know; although, I'm not sure you realize the depths of their love has touched and will continue to in very fond memories we hold. She believed in me even when i didnt believe in myself. They both were at my only sons wedding, teaching my grandson to swim in the back yard. The blessings they bestowed upon me i will honor them by caring for their brother; my Dad; My Pops!! Love You All Immensely.

Dear Kathi and Suzanne and family, I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was always so kind to include me in your family. And she was always a lady, gracious, kind and well put together. She never failed to made me feel that she listened and heard me even when we were young. This was one of the reasons she was such a gifted educator. I thought it was so wonderful that she and your dad always let you follow your dreams and passions. How many times did they have to listen to us at the piano you playing Carole King and both of us singing at the top of our lungs? Patience was one of her greatest virtues, your dad's too. I know you will miss her immensely as she was so involved and supportive in all your lives. Much love in your time of loss. So sorry I cannot attend to honor her. Shawn Faulkner Jones
