Psalm 61 Here, O God, my cry for help. Do pray attention to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I will cry out to you when my heart is in despair. Lead me onto a rock that is higher than I am. For you are my refuge, a strong tower that protects me from the enemy. I will be a guest in your tent forever; I will take the refuge in the shelter of your wings.

Pat came to my rescue every time I had to call for police service. He was truly kind and understanding. Pat was special to me because I had the honor of taking care of him at FGH years ago when he suffered a horrific incident. He was the most humble patient and never forgot me. I truly LOVED Pat and wish all his family comfort. In the Precious name of Jesus. Rebecca/Ryjiah Gleghorn.
