I will always remember meeting her as my apartment manager with her young daughter and later her husband Brian. I was a part of their wedding. I will always remember the Fain family, wonderful visits and phone conversations. Blessings to you all. Love Linda.
She and Brian were dear friends and I hate to have to give them up. But they are with Jesus now and won’t hurt anymore. I will always love them no matter what and will see them one day. ❤️❤️
Mrs Patty, was a very precious Lady. Always spoke always smiled. She will be missed very much. Praying for Your family. Mrs Sandra Tyler
Patty always will have a special place on my heart. She and Brian were dear friends. We called each other Cuz even though we are not related. We attended church together at Dickson First Assembly, where Brian sang bass in our choir. Patty, Lesa Burgess and I decorated the church, making it very festive for each Christmas. We had the best time working together, laughing a lot along the way. Our husbands came sometimes to bring us food, coffee and water. We have wonderful and fond memories of our days spent worshipping our Lord in song and shouts of Victory. They both will be remembered by so many as true Christians who we will meet again one day. Gone yet never forgotten.
To Heather, Robert and the girls. We are so sorry about Patty, so close to the most joyous season of the year, we send our love and deepest condolences. My iPad lost my Face Book so I did not know about this until this morning.
