Sister’s children – She was like a mother to us*

She knew my whole family and since we are poor she tried to help me a lot. I'm so thankful for that. I last saw Sister Pat at my graduation. I'm writing eight subjects... She always believed in second chances and about giving the best. Always wants to help you when you're down.
She was a woman of purpose. She loved young people and if you had a gift, she'd go out of the way to make you realize it. Her life was a sacrifice.
To me, she was my role model, she made me feel confident in myself. She made me believe that I can really sing [chuckles] She is a mother that any daughter would love to have. She is... Sister Pat!
She was like a mother to me. Loving, caring, always understanding problems...
She was a really great woman. Always made you feel confident; always gave encouraging words to build you up. She was always there to help. She will be greatly missed.
She was a very adorable lady, loving, caring.. simply the best. Sister Pat wrote a calypso about three weeks before her death "Moments Pass, Consequences Last." This song will be performed by Niellan in the 2005 National Junior Calypso competition.
Sister Pat was a very hardworking, caring, thoughtful... She always thinks of others.
