One of the best things in my life was Pat Farris. We met at the training center and took a lot of classes together.
As we grew to be friends our friendship end up with Pat and I visiting back and forth from West Plains to St Louis.
We were close and always enjoyed time together. I will miss her and always keep Pat in my ❤️.
