Shelba, I am so sorry for the loss you have suffered. I know the heartbreak that goes with losing a sibling as I myself lost my sister a short time back. The only solace is that he no longer is suffering and is now at peace, and will be joined once again by his family and loved ones when God calls them home. The pain will lessen as fond memorie take over and the acknowledgement that this is not the end but the beginning of a new life. One filled with love, warmth and everlasting peace.

I am very saddened by the death of "Patrick". I have known Patrick for many years. I was a long time employee of Alex's Resturants and he and a lot of the guys from Southern Bell came in on breaks and lunch. We all became very good friends and I still hear from and occasionally see some of them. He was a great person and good friend. My sincere condolences go to his family.
