I met Patty back in Eastern Kentucky when I was first employed with Coleman Oil and their Happy Mart C-Stores. She trained me and put in a good recomendation for me and I was soon manager of my own store.

Patty was my "Booger Buddy". We would pretend like we were slinging boogers back and forth and all other sorts of crazy things.

When I moved on to other jobs, Patty and I still kept in touch. I got to see her one last time before I moved back to California in 2004.
