Many others have said it far more eloquent than I what Pat and Barb mean to us all. Pat has the rest and peace he deserves, as does Barb. Pat reminded us of what we would all like to be like, in the prime of our life, and the end. For what its worth, this quote always causes me pause to reflect
No man is an island, entire of itself; every
man is a piece of the continent, a part of the
main. If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory
were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or
of thine own were: any man's death diminishes
me, because I am involved in mankind, and
therefore never send to know for whom the bells
tolls; it tolls for thee."
