15 Condolences
Karen, Children and Family,
My sincere thoughts & prayers are extended to you at this most difficult time. Pat was a remarkable person. I remember from back in 3rd grade when I first moved to Glenwood he was just that good friend that helped me adjust. As you have all the fond memories to hold dear, I too will hold mine close. May the heavens rejoice to have such a great angel. In loving memory…..Mitzi Howell Fink, Silver City
Wish I could be there to give hugs and support. Many prayers are coming your way. Let me know of memorials. Love you all.
Our daughter and son-in-law, who are National Park Rangers, have honored Pat with the gift of a tree planted in a National Forest in his memory. This living memorial enables wildlife to thrive, air and water to be cleaner, and people to enjoy God’s beautiful world. A card from the Foundation is being sent to Peterson’s Funeral Home. This gift is from Robert and Carol Schramm.
Karen and family, I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. I wish we could be there Saturday. Pat was a great guy and I know he loved you all so much, especially those grandbabies! Please trust in God even if you don’t have all the “why’s” answered. Pat is at peace. I pray you will also have peace as you grieve over your loss. God bless you all.
We are sorry for your loss.
