Sometimes gentle words can do so much to soften the intense sadness when a dear loved one dies. God's word acknowledges that our heart can be "broken and crushed." (Psalms 51:17). But even in severe situations, God can bring relief to a stricken heart if we pray to him in full faith and observe his commandments. May the God of comfort soothe your families aching hearts as the days progress.

Dear Family,
We were all very sad to learn of Pat's passing. Although we didn't get to see each other often, Pat was a very special cousin who was so sweet and who will be missed at the family reunions. May the peace of God rest upon all of you until you see Pat again. Annette Brinson Cox, Jeanette Brinson LeCroy, Gerri Brinson Graham, and Bob Brinson.

I was so sorry to hear about Patricia's passing. I was in school(BenTillman) with her.I always remembered her sweetness and we both were a little on the shy side. I saw her once years ago at the mall or Walmart. She still had her sweet mannerism. We did not get to talk for long. I'm sorry we never got to talk about our adult life and our families.From her obituary in the paper she sounded like a wonderful wife,mother and friend.
Hang on to all of the wonderful times and memories you all had together. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Bless all of you in your loss.
