My name is Patti Chavez, I was born and raised in the Chicago area. I am currently residing in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I am 44 years old, and the mother of 2 children. My Son Steve, age 26 and My Daughter Angela, age 16.
I have lost Both Of My Best Friends. My Mom on ( May 16th, 2007 ) and My Brother-In-Law on ( May 26th, 1990 )
~ Life will never be the same without them ~
Tell a little about the person lost...
My Beloved Mother

**********************
My beloved mother passed away and went to be with her Lord on May 16th, 2007.
She fought with some form of cancer for a number of years with bad medical care. My belief is that if she was given better medical care she may have survived several more years to enjoy her Golden Years.
Hospice was sent and started on Mother's Day 2007,....that was my last Mother's Day spent with my Mom and the strangest day of my life.
She had a " ONE OF A KIND " personality and sense of humor that can or will NEVER be duplicated. Anyone who knew her, knew that there was not a Sweeter Person than * Kay *.

My Brother-in-Law

It was a Cold Blooded Murder, with me standing 3 feet away from him at the time. Wrong place, wrong time for him and me. That may have been 18 years ago, however I STILL hear that gun shot as plain as day. Naturally, a part of me died that day also and the " Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda's " haunt me to this day.
Mark had a personality that would light up the whole room and then some. He was FULL of life,...and his ended way too soon. But as we all know,.....God ONLY takes the best!
******************************************************************
* And as with anyone who has ever lost a loved one, life will NEVER be the same again. But that ''IS'' life and it goes on. We know in our hearts that they would not want us to put our lives on hold for them, but instead to continue to live our lives to the fullest. And with us knowing that,....we hold them forever close to our hearts and cherish every moment that we were given with them*.
Because one day,........
+ WE WILL MEET AGAIN +
