  1. My sincerest condolences brother Fred, Fred Jr., Cindy, Bonny and to all the Patterson family. I was deeply saddened when we heard Sister Sophie went on to be with our Lord and Savior. I pray the Holy Spirit comfort you.
    My memories of Sister Sophie: She was kind, humble, modest, steadfast, and long suffering. She was joyful and gentle. She always showed us she loved us. She never looked rattled, she always had a pleasant and peaceful presence. She really role modeled a Christ-Like life for us all, a great example to follow. I’m so glad we knew her. She was a gem. “Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” Sending you all prayers, hugs, and love!
    In Christ, Lora Perea

  2. Brother Fred and Family, my heartfelt condolences. For me, Sister Sophie is a life long example of a woman of faith who showed love and compassion in how she lived. I’ve known many in the Patterson family and I pray God brings each of you the peace and comfort you need. Love and honor to sister Sophie. God Bless.

  3. My condolences to the family of Sophie, the Lord blessed your family with a beautiful, loving lady. A fine example of a Christian life. May the Holy Spirit provide comfort but also rejoice in knowing she is rejoicing in our Lord’s promise of everlasting life.

  4. CandleImageBROTHER FRED, Freddie Joe, Cindy, Bonnie and all the families that belonged to my precious sister;
    The Carrasco family send our love to all you. May the Mercy and Grace of our Lord be with you during this time.
    The transition of Life is wonderful for those going to meet our Savior I know it is a difficult time yet for us for her being able to see Jesus and what he has prepared for her is the most important part of what she lived for, it is sad yet scripture says how precious is it when a saint goes to meet our Savior because in the sight of our God they are only asleep.
    Sometimes it’s hard for us left behind yet to know the death of a saint is a precious thing for in God we are only asleep..
    May God be with all of you we’ve been praying for you. May the peace of God be with you all.
    With all our Love the Carrasco family.

  5. CandleImageSo sorry for your loss Br. Fred. Sis Sophie was a blessing to my mom and me. Now she’s walking on the streets of Gold. I was a young 16 year old when, I met her 1977. She greeted me with open arms. Br. Joe Gonzales and Sis. Cora they were having a little revival they were ministering in song and preaching, when I met Sister Sophie it was on an Easter Sunday. She always made you welcome in her beautiful home. Now she is with her Sister and son and family walking on the streets of Gold. She also helped me to except the Lord in my life. Thank you Sis. For your guidance on Salvation. She was a true prayer warrior. R. I. P. Sis. Sophie. My prayers are with you Br. Fred and the family.
