Pats family extends thanks to the Optimal Hospice staff who helped us so much, and provided much appreciated caring help and support. As per her wishes, there will be no formal service. Instead, arrangements will be made for a gathering of close friends and relatives in the near future. Legacy.com Published in the Bakersfield Californian on 8/7/2005.
