Sweet Aunt Patty,

You have been up in heaven for some time now,

I love and miss you so,

I remember your sweet and beautiful smile,

I remember when you would sit and play with my hair,

I remember when the turkey jumped on me,

And you put medicine on my cuts,

I remember your hugs,

Sweet Aunt Patty,

I love and miss you so,

Do you know that I am 23 today?

Do you know that Heather has a baby on the way?

Do you know that Melonie has a little girl and she’s three today?

Do you know that Mac graduated from high school?

Do you know that my mommy got married not long ago?

Sweet Aunt Patty,

I love and miss you so,

Do you know that grandma found out she has cancer not long ago?

Do you know that mike your older son got married not long ago?

Do you know I wish you were still here with us today?

Sweet Aunt Patty,

I love and miss you so,

Your sweet family misses you so,

I know we will all be together one day soon,

But sweet Aunt Patty I love and miss you so.
