Pat and I grew up on Parkview Ave, living across the street from each other. We played in the neighborhood together, went to each other's birthday parties, sang in church together, shared wonderful memories in Rainbow Girls, and she was a dear friend. We kept in touch over the years sharing the fact that we both married our RRHS sweethearts.... Bud and Steve. Pat passed suddenly on November 11th after just being diagnosed with cancer a few months before that. Then on Dec 17, Bud who was suffering from dementia, also passed away. Those of you on Facebook can look up their granddaughter, Nicole Spooner Davis, and read her tributes to both Pat and Bud by looking at her posts aroun the dates of their deaths. Love and miss them both. Joan Shockey Thayer.... class of 60.
