Patirkya Passed On 

Patrikya passed on Friday night May 2nd at 6:30pm.  Jayme and Tod (two of her kids) were with her for her last breath. She was peaceful and seemed to be without pain in her last days.  

Patrikya was such a key part of Burdock and she will be missed by all her knew her.  We can carry her spirit on at Burdock and in our lives.   Keep Patrikya's spirit in your heart, mind and soul.

Cards and notes can be sent to Jayme Proctor at 22 Rosewood Avenue, South Portland, ME 04106.
