Bob,I will miss seeing Pat at Brookside selling cookies. She was a wonderful and caring person. We shared many stories and had many laughs. I will think of her on Fridays wondering if we can get mac and cheese for lunch. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Bobbi SteinbrinkBobbi Steinbrink
