If you are not yet familiar with Caring Bridge, you will find it a truly "caring" place for families and friends.  You can click on the link for updates any time and leave messages of encouragement for the family.  We will continue to post what we learn.  We appreciate your love, prayers and support as the Pattersons go through this difficult time.

Josh Patterson is the assistant principal at BSIS.  His daughter, Adri, was diagnosed with a brain tumor on January 11, 2010.  She is a precious little girl with quite a personality and is full of life!  Adri had brain surgery on January 15.  To assist the family with medical bills and other expenses we have opened an account at First Citizens Bank.  You may contribute by dropping by any First Citizens Bank branch and tell them that you would like to make a deposit in the account for Josh Patterson DBA Adri Patterson Fund.  Your contributions and prayers are greatly appreciated.
