I just noticed the passing of Patricia (Pat) and with my deepest sympathy to your loss of your mother/grandmother. I am the youngest to your fathers brother Kenneth L Bricker who passed away in 2002. My parents were not very close to the other Brickers, so I didn’t know your side very well but I know my father loved his brothers even through tough times. My thoughts and prayers are with your all at this time. God bless you all and take care. 🙏😞🙏

So sorry to hear of Pat’s passing. She was a sweet lady who was so supportive of our youth ministry over the years. Prayers for all your family, and special greetings to Ian who was a student in our RE Program years ago. God bless you all and may Pat rest in peace!
