Ms. Patty has been such an amazing woman, she has fought the good fight. She spread the gospel and encouraged everyone she came into contact with. I pray for you guys because I know losing this bright light in your family will be hard to adjust to. It is a sad day for the Crestview family as well.

We cannot even begin to express our sorrow for the loss of this very special and lovely woman. Patty was such an important part of the maturing of our walk with our Lord and Savior. She started out as our Sunday School teacher and became a very dear friend over the years. She was always such a blessing to be around and we will miss her so very much, but we cherish our memories of and with her. We pray for peace and comfort for all of the family as you grieve the loss of Patty, even as we do ourselves. Much love to all the family.
