"He did say to me when we got married, we will have a few ups and downs, but it will never be boring. And he was so right. It was never boring. I think I have been very blessed that he chose me," she said.
On October 30, 2023, Patti marked two years since she said her final goodbye to her husband.
"This day two years ago we said goodbye to this wonderful man, the love of my life. We miss you every moment of everyday. Sleep well we love you," she captioned the photo (above) on Instagram.
