00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: in kiss you like, what in the heck is going on?

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: Because Patty, do you have any clue what we're doing here? That? Really? No?

5
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: Not really? Well you have. Shannon is pretty amazing and

6
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: she told us about you and she wrote us actually

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: a letter. Shannon, will you would you read to us

8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: what you wrote? Of course you're Fred. This year my

9
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 1: Christmas list is not for my friend Patty. He is amazing.

10
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: He's raising her two nieces and Matthew after her mother

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: passed earlier this year. She also has her grandson's part

12
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: time Pattie carries the weight of the world. She worked

13
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 1: over twelve hours a day since her other half is disabled.

14
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: She is a soul Purvier. She worked so hard for

15
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: the Swedish kids and is so selfless. I try to

16
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: help however I can. But if there's anything you write,

17
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: tould be for her. It was just greatly appreciated thinking

18
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: and so Unfortunately since this letter was written, there's a

19
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: kind of another sad update to the story. Patty, your
