Patricia Dowell

Hey friends and family, as you all know, Patty has been on a long and exhausting journey with lung cancer. As sad as we are to see her go, she is getting ready to receive the best gift of all- to be pain free. The fight has come to an end and she is patiently waiting as God prepares her place in heaven.

Anyone that knows Dad & Patty know the kind of people they are. They are giving. They are selfless. They know no strangers and have no enemies. Dad and Patty are the kind of people who would give the shirt off their back. They are always willing to go the extra mile to help everyone who ever needed it. It's never mattered the kind of help that someone needed, if they could help figure it out, they do.

They would never ask for help for themselves, but their kids are going to ask for them. We want to show them that people show up when needed, show that they matter and that they deserve the help during this most difficult time.

We are asking for prayers and for comfort. We want to honor Patty the best that we can and the best we know how. We want to have Patty's services in Kansas, that's where her friends, family, and life have been.

We are asking if anyone finds that they are able to help with any donations or thoughts and prayers, they could use all the help they can get.

Please help us show them that we are all here for them and that we will rally around Dad, we will catch them during their difficult time just the same way that they have caught all of us during all of our rough times.

Dad, Patty, and all of us kids thank each of you for being here through this.

We love you all.
