She was my mother and my friend. I remember our dinners with just Mom and Dad. She accepted me into the Swain family with open arms and a loving heart. I miss her.

Dear Ones: It is with sincere sympathy that we express our condolences to you all at the death of dear Pat. We remember her as a caring, sensitive and delightful friend who loved to hear the stories of our large and active family. As Proverbs 31 says: " Pat speakes with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. Many women do noble things, but she surpasses them all." May Pat rest in the Presence of our dear Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and may her family be comforted in knowing this truth.. We love you, Maggie and Pat Sullivan
