Boyles Family

My grandparents were in a car accident last week, and my grandmother passed away. She was another mother to me, and I loved her very much. My grandfather is still in the hospital, but doing better, and will hopefully be released soon. I just wanted to do a post and tell everyone thank you for helping with my boys, for the flowers, and mostly for the prayers. I truly feel blessed to have had her for a grandmother and a friend all these years. The following is part of her obituary:
Patricia Ann Smith, age 74, passed away Monday June 2, 2008.
Born on July 29, 1933 in Santa Monica, CA., the daughter of the late Arthur Leon and Alice Lucille Palmer. She and her two brothers loved the beaches of California and grew up riding their surfboards with their dad. She moved to Cobb County, GA., where she met her husband Gene A. Smith on a blind date and where they raised their daughters. She was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in 1971 and she and her husband later served as missionaries in Missouri. She was known for her knowledge and passion of family history and her devotion to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. She also loved computers and technology, her dog Napoleon, and being with her family. Pat is deeply loved by many, many people because she always showed her sincere love and acceptance of them.
