  1. Steve – There’s not a memory of my mid-teens and twenties that don’t have Pat in them. She was a great friend to me and the other kids she raised. I owe her my thanks for all the time she spent with me teaching me to crochet, cooking for us and just letting me have a place to be. I know she will find great piece in heaven, she has earned it. I loved your mother greatly and will remember her always – My prayers are with your family now while you go thru this loss. Love Tammy Carver Case.

  9. Steve–sorry to hear about Patty. She was a very dear cousin whom I loved very much. Wished I could have been there for you. Cleate & Carol

  10. When I was a small child, in 2nd grade, we lived in N.C. in a very small house above where Patty Lynn lived. Times were tough and both Granny and Grandpa (Norman and Pauline Morgan) had to take a job at Enka. After school, I used to ride the bus to Patty Lynn’s house and stay with her until Grandma picked me up. I remember baking cakes, canning pickles, helping pick from the garden, making pizza, watching Steven. I have wonderful memories of Patty Lynn; laughter and smiles and never a harsh word. God has another angel in Heaven.
