Dear John and all the family, I have such fond and lovely memories of Pat, who was the very first member of St Ann's parish that I had the pleasure of meeting following the funeral of Fr Bob in 2003. It was a joy and a privilege to get to know her well over the following seventeen years, and to come to depend on her wisdom and enthusiasm during her time as Lay Pastoral Minister in the parish. What a brillliant mind! But 'our true home is in heaven' - the readings and hymns of the Funeral Service are well chosen - and there, with the Lord, we shall be together again. I'll be celebrating Mass for Pat, and you, at the time of her Funeral. With love and prayers, Fr Chris.
