Trish and I were great friends in junior high and high school. We swirled around the skating rink many hours talking about teenage things. Diana, Trish and I did a skit at the skating rink with dyed mop heads on our heads acting like a rock band. We thought we were so cool! Trish was a true friend friend throughout my life. I know you are watching over all of us with a big smile and a twinkle in her eye! Prayers for your precious family and Diana.
Patricia was and former coworker and a good friend. Met her many years ago when she worked in Dallas TX for JB hunt. When me and my wife moved to Arkansas 5 years ago I ran into her and Jerry at a restaurant and we just and at each other and said we know each other we said yes we we all became close friends. And when I got cancer 3 years ago Patricia was there for me. Text me and alway courage me and tell me that you will get through this. I want her to return I would do the same thing back to her. Her and her husband Jerry I know come to our house and we all hang out laugh and talk talk about the olden days at Jb Hunt. And when she got recently got worse I have not heard from her in the few weeks while her husband Jerry contacted me and told me she was in the hospital. That day I went right over to the hospital to visit my dear friend. And while we were sitting there visiting she looked at me I looked at her she said you know this sucks and I told her yes it does but I told her me and Beverly would be here for her and Jerry. Did they move her to the hospice hospital I went to visit her before I went on a work trip I sat there talk to the other family members and talk to Jerry. I do knew that my friend was not gonna be here much longer. I went on a work trip I return last Thursday got off the plane and the first thing I did is went back to the hospice hospital to see her I touched her on her arm whisper in my ear that I was here. The next day husband Jerry called me and told me she had passed. I was very sad she was a truly good friend who is a good former coworker and I will deeply miss her. But she’s not in pain no more and she’s up there watching download all of us. Patricia I will never forget you.
