Patti was a best friend when you needed one, a special mom, a girlfriend. Whatever, you needed her to be she would be. Not only was she my confidant in the office for 8 years but she became close friends to the family. We shared stories about our hubby\'s and our children. She was always there to root me on. She became aunt Patti to my children and was loved very dearly by all. TO know Patti is to love this little lady to life. She was a fighter by all means. Patti didn\'t lose her battle to cancer. She simply took it for what it was, that Jesus wanted her home. She accepted it and was ready to serve as she always was. I love you, Patti. Now you can take care of my hubby!!. Patti, you were the only one who could make me cry even when I stated I don\'t like doing the \"ugly face\". You will be missed, my friend. Tell Nate I love him! To Neil and to the family. You guys had a GEM for a wife and a mother. I know that one of Patti dreams was to have grandchildren. I know she is up there being Patti and there will be ROE grandchildren her soon. She will watch over all of you from heaven because Patti took care of everyone. That was just her heart. Neil, you know I know your pain if you need anything, my friend. please let me know. What a wonderful family and a wonderful woman of GOD!! My deepest condolences to the ROE family. Love you guys.!

So sorry to hear of Patti's passing. I only worked with her a couple of years prior to her retirement, but I enjoyed knowing her. Truly a special person.

Neil and Family, So sorry to hear this. I hadn’t seen her since the boys were little, but I remember the love on your wedding day... and how proud she was of the boys when I saw them at the parade. Keeping you in my prayers.... Yonee

So sorry to hear of the loss of Patti. I had not seen her in years. I finally attended class reunion and saw her. She looked very well and was having a great time. We talked about her cancer, but most of all we talked about her boys, husband and life in general. I am very glad I was able to visit with her. RIP young lady, enjoy all the great people in heaven

I have so many memories of Patti, from our school days. She almost always had a smile on her face. My thoughts, hugs and prayers go out to Neil and the rest of the family...

To The Roe Family & Friends: As it’s written in the Book of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, “For everything there’s a season”..., I thank God for his blessing of loaning Patti to so many people. Through her and Neil they showed the true meaning of “unconditional love “, which is truly a perfect example of what God is. During this time of earthly sorrows lets remember our Gift God gave; Patti and what she represented, “lets all roll up our shelves, open our hearts with love and get to working “ Rest in Heaven our beautiful friend, thank you and until we meet again. Classmates forever, Ida Robinson
