Deserves a Good Latte

Happy 60^th Pat,

Well, this deserves a good latte, so…..I’ve got mine….what about you? Hey, a good glass of wine would be OK too! At any rate, I’ve been blessed to have you as my sister(in-law) and friend for over 33 years, wow, that’s more than half your life! In fact, I guess it’s really your fault that I’m part of your family since it was you my wonderful husband came to see when I was lucky enough to meet him!! However, even before that you were part of my life as my Sabbath School teacher for Single Adults back in Cortland , and a good teacher you were, very down to earth and real about things. Oh yes, and you owned the great little Health Food Store just down the road that I enjoyed frequenting, and I guess I began to frequent even a little more after Jamie showed up behind the counter.

Well, through the years, we’ve enjoyed lots of happy and sad times together….the key word together. We’ve shared…well, shopping is a given, eating out now and then, a latte or cup of coffee together around the table or out on the deck, , scrap-booking together, sharing the loss of loved ones, celebrating birthdays and holidays together when possible, but mostly just hanging out and sharing our lives.

Thanks fore being a part of my life! I love you!

Judy

Come By Anytime

Hey Patricia,

Where to start? Like most siblings, we've been through a lot together.

I'm not much for phone calls, probably because I don't hear like I did when I was a kid. I kind of miss having you close by so I can just go down the hill and see you. But that makes it extra special when we do get to visit I guess. Come by any time! (We need to get Southwest to stop in Ashville...)

And thanks to you, I have one of the most important things in my life ~ my family. If I hadn't come up to New York to see you when I was working in Mississippi, I wouldn't have met Judy and my life would have been pretty different. Then again, karma is a weird thing and maybe I would have met her somehow anyway. But I'm glad it worked out the way it did and thanks for singing at my wedding!

Thanks for putting up with me the last 54 years...

~Sir James

I Always Enjoy Anything We Do

Dearest Pat,

It was so rewarding to know that you were so happy today after all the planning that Marca, Kaneesha, and I did for today. Our mission was accomplished. It was actually really fun to do this, and very easy, also, because of all that you do for me, Pat. I want you to know that I am very happy that I have you and that we can spend so much time together. I always enjoy anything we do, whether it's going to Wal-mart or eating at Cheddar's or watching Kill Bill. We should do this again sometime- care to have a birthday again this time next month? I'll tell ya what: Have your people call my people, and we'll do lunch.

I love you,

Rose
