    oh my dear friends. So many great memories!! Your Mom treated me as another one of her kids. My 2 week stay with you in Deerfield ! I treasure all of our times together. I had to pitch all the loose hay out of the north end of barn in order to go to stay in Deerfield ! Worth every pitchfork full!! She attended the funerals of Mom,Dad, Roger and Keith. She came to visit Mom in Wis. Rapids. I just found out today. Dennis called me. I would have come to see you all. I sure hope to make contact with you all soon. Anybody email or Facebook ? I love you all!!

    Patsy has been an important part of my life. I am proud to call her a ‘best friend ‘. I admired her spirit,her giving and positive nature and her sense of humor. She has set an example that I want to follow. We have laughed I and cried together and shared our feelings. Patsy taught me to laugh more, be more forgiving, to be a friend to all, to be more positive and relaxed. She will continue to touch the lives of all that loved her.
