Pat was my mamaw and she was amazing at being one. She gave me plenty of pop and candy. she tried to teach me a lot of things. I miss her so much i wish i had her more in my life. i wish i could remember what she looked like when she was healthy.

Pat was one of the most wonderful persons I have ever met. She was beautiful inside and out. She was not only devoted to her beloved husband Larry and children. She was also devoted , caring and honest with her friends and business associates. She was so loving and thoughtful and the kind of person yo were drawn to by her loving ways. Pat and i did some business;es together and saved a lot of people a lot of money. She was very honest and concerned for her friends and everybody. One vacation she and Larry made the trip to Florida and I had the wonderful opportunity of meeting her and Larry. What an honor and sweet surprize. I also was blessed with having a few days spent with Rhonda and Taylor staying with me for a few days in Largo Florida. They were a true tribute to Pat and Larry's parenting. Great kids and a wonderful time. I am saddened by Pat's passing and only comforted by the knowlege that she is with Jehovah to whom she was dedicated to. An Angel on earth is now in Heaven. I love you Pat Howard, you were an awesome friend. Blessing to your wonderful family, my thoughts and prayers are always with them.. I will never forget her.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
