"Patty was a special person with special gift. She and I were born together. There is no greater bond than a twin sister. Though our lives went in different directions we always had our bond. Love you and miss you but love our memories. Thanks for being my lifelong twin sister. Nothing will ever change that."

"Patty, There are so many wonderful things I could say about you! I feel very blessed and grateful to have met you through Matt 7 years ago. You were a good friend to me, as well as my massage therapist & \'counselor\'. I will always cherish my memories of you. I still think that I am going to hear your voice..it still seems so unreal. You were truly a beautiful person inside and out, with a huge loving, kind, caring heart, and a beautiful soul. I will cherish our talks about spirituality, our relationships with the men in our lives, and life in general. I will never forget the day you made me go with you to see the love of my life\'s charity event when we were split up. You were my rock that day, & held me up many, many times. I only hope that I did the same for you. I am very grateful that I got to see you one last time before you went on to a more beautiful & peaceful place than we here can even imagine. I am also grateful that I had to opportunity to go to your memorial service & be one of those who shared memories of you. I know you are watching out over your family and all of us. I miss you Patty! Your heart, your soul, your spirit lives on. Love you Patty. <3"

"PATTY will always be in my memories. My only regret is that we didn\'t meet in Sedona in March, upon reconnecting with one another after 40 years . She was my best friend from 6th grade through our early twenties when our lives took different turns. I moved to California, she went to Florida. Rest in Peace Patty and my condolences to her family."
