Having just heard of Patti's passing, while my message is late I still wanted to leave my condolences. Patti was a one of a kind human being. She lit up any room she walked into. She could make you smile in an instant. She was a fearless spirit and yet had some fears that she hid very well. She graciously welcomed me into the Dea family, without hesitation, and always ensured that I knew that her and the rest of the family were always there if ever I needed them. I loved being around her. Her infectious laugh. Her "feel the fear and do it anyway" attitude, made her a joy to be around. She also was a great "hugger". What a beautiful soul that made each and everyone she had contact with, just that much better from having known her. To the Dea family, Mike and his children, thanking you for sharing this lovely light with all of us. Heaven has gained an angel, who's impact will live on forever.
