    I first remember Patty in maybe second grade, envying her long braids when our classes passed in the Burris hallways. Later, when we were together in Mrs. Chastain's 7th grade English, realizing how smart Patty was. Row 2 and 4 always traded and graded workbooks. I was in row 2, she row 4, both 4 seats back...traders. It was no fun, though, for me, she never missed anything. Ugh! But, we had that formable bond, our dads were farmers and school bus drivers. Then, her smarts became questionable in high school...a Bryantsville boy. Just teasing, Bobby, probably "Bob" now. And, the lifetime love story began. I don't know how one goes on without their buddy, but I'm pretty much counting on my faith to help me through. Bobby, my deepest sympathy and prayers for your family. Linda
