Service to CCFC

25 years belonging to CCFC,
Patti's been a member as long as can be.
Initially a volunteer at the French Hospital Gift Box,
Giving of her time and spirit when opportunity knocked.
​
She traveled to gift shows in San Franciso and L.A.,
Treasures abounded, ready for her to help display.
​
President of CCFC in two thousand five,
To be the best president, I'm sure she did strive.
​
As parliamentarian, Patti's an expert in the rules of order,
And updating the by-laws, she's quite the informer!
​
Preparing the taxes, collecting tickets, and counting the money,
To have one so knowledgeable, CCFC is very lucky.
​
Patti, you are the heart and soul of CCFC,
You are the very best, we all decree!
​
Thank you for your 25 years of support to CCFC,
What would we do without you?
