  7. We are very sorry for your family’s loss. My daughter Caitlin was lucky enough to have Mrs. Brown for her kindergarten teacher. Mrs. Brown was such a loving, caring, and giving person. When Caitlin was sick and couldn’t make field day, we were surprised by a visit from her wonderful teacher. Mrs. Brown came to our house with medals and prizes from field day to lift Caitlin’s spirts from missing field day.

  8. Our prayers & thoughts are with you in your loss. Patt’s sister, Cele, spoke of her often & we know how loved Patt was by all of her family & how important she was to each of you.

  9. We were saddened to hear of Patt’s passing. She and I got our masters together, and I was excited to reconnect with her when I walked into B.B. Harris to register my older daughter for kindergarten, only to find out that she was teaching at the same school. I know that that was the grade she wanted to teach, and I am happy that she got to fulfill that dream. Patt was a wonderful lady, a good friend to those who knew her, and an amazing teacher. She will be dearly missed.

  10. My heart is breaking at the loss of this wonderful, kind, gentle, generous friend.From our college days to our weddings & on..sorry we lost touch for so many years. I would have been there if I had known. Much love to all.

  11. Merry Christmas Mom And Happy New Year Miss You Love Tony Brown Wish I Could Send You Some Dove Chocolate Bye Have A Great Day Wherever You Are Mom Goodnight.
