Remembering a friend from long ago. Patti, Ronda and I spent a lot of time together during high school and beyond. I got my driver's license using Patti's car. We were roommates in Des Moines. I still have the charm bracelet she gifted to me when I graduated from high school. Many, many memories. My condolences to her family.

Patti, Remembering our friendship in junior high, high school, your first car, sleepovers, double dates, graduation, weddings and the birth of our children. Time slips away with friendships...but you will always be remembered with the fondest of memories and love.

Patty and I were classmates in school. A few years ago I took it upon myself to stop by and pay her a visit. We talked about going to school in Osceola, our families and what we had been doing for the last 49 years. I am so glad I had that time with her. My deepest sympathy for the family.
