Mother was the strongest person I have ever known she and dad must have love us all alot to work as hard as they did so we would have our basic needs met. Thank you for everything Mom I will always look to you for inspiration and hope.

Dear Children of Pat and Dick,
I have fond memories of both your parents, especially Patty, the name I always called her. We shared a bedroom for the time that I lived with her at 809 E. Boulder, Grandma and Grandpa K.'s house. I thank them both for teaching me the basics of ice skating at the Broadmoor Hotel and to ride a horse. I miss them both and think how hard it must be for all of you. Your cousin, Judy

I have nothing but fond and funny memories of Grandma. Love You and will miss you.
Jesse & Melissa Davis

Although you always wish for more time with a lost loved one, we take comfort in knowing Grandma is in a better place now. We know that we will see her again one day and we are glad to know she is with Grandpa now and they will continue to watch over us.
Much Love,
Jeremiah, Monique & Wyatt

I love and miss you mom. I am glad you are together again with Dad in a very happy place. My memories of you will be with me forever.

I treasure the time I got to spend with Grandma. I take comfort in knowing that she is with Grandpa now. I will love and always remember you, Grandma. Love Danny

I'm really said that my younger sibs never had the chance to know our mother the way that I did before she got ill. She was like my best frend. I could go to her with anything and she would understand. I will miss her. Love Dave

I'm so thankful for everything Mom has sacrificed for us. These past few years, I've been asking Aunt Loretta, Cousin Judy and Cousin Barb a lot about what Mom was like when she was younger; what her dreams were. And each time I discover something new about her, I realize how little I really knew her. For example, did you know that she wrote a play in high school just to lure a boy that she had a crush on into her home? Or that she took photographs and developed them on her own? Or that she had dreams of being a writer? And did you know that her mother, Mary, was accepted into Julliard for piano? Why didn't we know these things about our own mother? I think it's because she lived in the present; in the hustle and bustle of raising ten kids. So thanks Mom, for giving us the chance to live our dreams, the dreams that you put on the back burner of your life, so that we could live ours...I love you always.

Grandma is in a better place and happy to be with Grandpa. I'm truly blessed for the time I got to spend with her and I will NEVER forget that big smile and the relationship she had with the Lord. We love you Grandma! XOXO

Our Mother loved her mountains and Colorado and I am so glad that she was able to pass here in Colorado. I miss her so much! My prayers and memories of her are with me always.

I will always remember my mother for her love of the outdoors and nature. She inspired me to nurture my talents with painting and to love and appreciate nature. Her strong faith in God that God will show us the way has inriched my own path through this life. Thank you mom.....

Laurie:

I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I apologize we have not stayed in touch through the year...no excuse other than being "busy."
I do wish you well and hope that you have family, friends and faith to help you through this difficult time.
Feel free to get in touch with me at anytime...I would love to hear from you!

Blessing always,
