    Trish you were a very special lady who was taken home way too soon. You left me with a lot of special memories that I will hold dear to my heart. Tracy my prayers are with you as you grieve the loss of your mother and Lynda as you grieve the loss of your sister. Please know that everybody loved Trish like she were their mother or their sister. We were her work family and there will not be a day that she is not missed.
    I hope you feel surrounded by much love. God Bless you and your family.
