About Patricia

As a former stay at home parent for 4 years I loved taking care of my small children. A caregiver is a soul friend and family member brought in during a time of physical need. Friendships built during care giving, I consider soul companions! There is a reason behind everything and life can be hard without help! I see the cup is half full and never half empty. I am proud to serve others in a time of need.
