Condolences

Pat, we had one of the friendships people form “on line” in Facebook. Our Virginia introduced us so your friendly, funny insightful personality graced me with friendship.
Reading the remembrances you family, friends and students wrote, your spiritual support and love for people and their love for you is beautifully expressed.
Requiem aeternam dona ei Domine et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.

Pat, please God, we call on your prayers for us now.
Under the mercy,
Dave

Bob and family so sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

I was so blessed to see Pat this summer with her grandchildren shopping. She was one of my favorite people early on in my teaching career at Westmoreland. I thought of her often and will continue to have her in my heart. I am so sorry for your loss.

May the angels welcome you, good and faithful servant. Our condolences to the whole Burke and Risley family.

My condolences to the family. Mrs. Risley was always one of my favorite teachers and I have often looked back on her with fondest memories. She was an excellent teacher that encouraged her students to express themselves and to stay true to themselves. I will always be grateful to her for those lessons. May she rest in peace.

Dear friend, You will be missed by many. Your Pilgrimage to the Holyland led you to the Heavenly Holyland where the choir of angels welcomed you. May Perpetual Light shine upon you and grant you peace.
Fondly,
