![]() I just checked with a friend of hers and it is our Patty and it is true. I am posting this with a heavy heart.
Patty was very supportive of me while my husband was overseas and always sent me uplifting and funny email to cheer me up. I know I am not alone when I say we will miss her. RIP Patty ![]() ~JaNan

![]() This is a true shocker. Seems like it's always the exceptional folks here who we lose. May her memory be a blessing.

![]() OMG I am so sad, I was going to shoot her an email today because I had not heard from her in a bit, she was a good friend and even though we never met, she was the best. I am shocked. She helpedme with lots of growing and encouraged me along the way, with both the bananas and citrus.

![]() Wow, this is a sad surprise. She was a friend and a source of motivation, crazier than even me in growing things such as bananas and pitaya in the cold climate of Wisconsin. She was very generous and a fun person to read e-mails and posts from and will be missed. I pray that she is some place even nicer!

How ironic last night I was reading in the past and came upon this post by Patty from 2009. She went on to say some of her wines are 18% alcohol. After reading this I ventured over to the citrus forum and found the post saying she was no longer with us. With extreme sadness and aching heart I returned here to post hoping that it was not our Patty. I would have dearly loved to have had the opportunity to meet her in person to taste her wines and see her tropical plants growing were they had no reason to exist. Impossible was not in her vocabulary when it came to Zone Bending. Her tales of rogue animals attacking her garden always brought a smile to my face. It seems so unfair that she will no longer brighten my day. My prayers are with the family and her friends. Goodbye Patty. Never forgotten! Dearly missed!
