    This is incredibly difficult news to process. I met Patti and Royal 12 years ago and I instantly fell in love with Patti (my Mom did too!). Patti was one of those people who exudes kindness and genuine decency. Patti loved so big and counted herself lucky in life, she held dear-The Love of Her Life-Royal, her home on The Bruce, her Kitty-Taz, her work, her Family and all of the Friends that she picked up along the way. Patti touched people. Patti made a difference to so many. To be hugged by Patti was to feel special and beloved. I will miss her so much. Patti achieved what many people wish they could, a permanent spot in our minds and in our hearts. We all of us, will miss you beyond measure Patti. Please go in peace and know you have carved out such a precious place in the world. Laura xo
