I was saddened to discover Mrs. Pats passing so late...my wife of 26 years now had visited Mrs Pat an Richard many years ago while we were just dating. I worked with Richard at a machine shop where we became friends, he was a hard onion to peel lol but a great guy.They made us feel so welcome, took us all over Colorado an introduced us to their friends. She even made me "sweet tea"(1/2 cup sugar) lol since the west didn't offer it.We made a video of our trip an it will now mean so much more as we view it. Friendships last a lifetime. Till we meet again!
