To Bob and family, I'm so sorry to learn of Pat's passing. I was very blessed to have you as neighbors for 25+ years, and missed those great talks on your front porch, after you moved. Pat was a special lady. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

Dear Uncle Bob and all the Kiester Cousins,
So sorry for your loss, and not able to be there at this time. I will always remember the enjoyable times I had in our too infrequent visits--both in Ft. Wayne and Colorado. Aunt Pat had her hands full when we were all together, but she managed to both tolerate and encourage our activities and expression--even when it would get a bit rowdy! I'm sure you will all greatly miss her presence--please know that you are all in my thoughts. Take Care, Kathleen
