As most of you know, I get my morning coffee at Damrons BAR BQ & Meat Company in Martin. This morning was not a happy time. Last night, Joe Damron informed me that one of our regular coffee drinker`s and my friend, Pat Dowland had passed away. My deepest condolence`s to her husband Ricky and her entire family ! Pat was 64 year`s young. She was a breath of sunshine, anytime she was in attendance. Pat was not in great health. She actually complained, very little. She smiled most of the time and loved talking about her grandchildren. She usually dressed immaculately and yet very conservatively. I always noticed her jewelry, it was always nice and never gaudy. Her husband Ricky was always at her side, when she needed him. He too, is an outstanding individual. He and I always traded barbs with one another. Joe Damron, at times thought we were going to fight(I think ?). Not so. Just good old fashioned fun. I have nothing but the deepest respect for Ricky Dowland ! Listed below are Pat`s arrangements.
