Mackenzie "Zie Zie" Claire Patterson

We continue our prayers for your entire family.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May God place His angels around you to bring you peace.

Sorry hit wrong button, I was saying they do not know the pain you are going through. But do know we are all praying for all of you at this very difficult time. I look to music Casting Crowns has a song "I know your there,' it say the Lord catches all of our tears. Also Matthew West "Strong Enough" it says I don't have to be strong enough because he is stronger. These have help me through some bad times. My God Bless all of you.

I, like so many others, kept up with Zie's journey on facebook. Gayla, I have shared so many posts with you and felt like I was taking the journey with ya'll. I had the good fortune of running into Stephanie, Sabrina and Zie at HEB one day. The daily posts were so full of hope, joy and love. When I opened facebook yesterday and heard about her leaving I just wasn't expecting it. I know your grief is overwhelming and I know it can be paralyzing. Just know we are all sending love and prayers to you and Zie is your special little angel now.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. My heart is so heavy with the loss of Mackenzie. I can still see her smiling face as I looked out on the congregation from the choir loft at church. Her art work is posted on the board at church; she was so talented. Such a happy and precious little girl, who brought smiles to everyone around her. She will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family!
Sincerely,
Miss Therese Markham

Steph,Jeff, Sabrina, Mumsy & Big Daddy, my heart breaks for you all! God has a beautiful angel with Him now! Zie was such an inspiration to me.Little Caroline every morning just looked so forward to see what picture Zie had on the Internet that day! She loved making silly videos for Zie and also always wanted to see Zie's picture! Her favorite picture of Zie was the one with the blue beads on her head, as Caroline said, look today she is Princess Zie! Caroline would search for hours trying to find pictures of horses to send to Zie! Zie's big smile thru all her pain blessed so many people's lives! We will truly miss her heart warming glowing smile, but it will always be in my memory. Caroline and I send our deepest sympathy and love! God be with each of you and comfort you all.

Although we never had the honor of meeting Zie, we prayed for her healing and rejoiced when she was feeling well. From the pictures her grandmother, Gayla, posted, we could see she had an infectious personality and could light up a room with her big smile. She was an inspiration to many, many people, and her courage will never be forgotten. We know she is making Heaven a brighter place.

Heaven must have needed another angel really bad. That's why Mackenzie was called home. Heaven's gain is our loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers. While we offer feeble words of comfort, I ask God to comfort you as only He can.

Zie, our precious babe....you will live in our Hearts forever. You have filled our lives with the most precious Love and Joy. You have taught us many things as we watched you grow into such an amazing girl. The Love we have for you, Sabrina, Mommy and Daddy is what makes our lives complete. Baby girl, we will be with you again....Thank you Jesus for the gift of our Mackenzie. Jesus she taught us to talk with you. And, let me say from your Mumsy.....life will never be the same...but your life will be Celebrated in my mind and soul each and every day. This bond will never be broken. I Love you with all my Heart and Big Daddy wants me to say....'to the moon and back Zie....to the moon and back baby.' Steph and Jeff we Love you more than words can express....Sabrina...our Hero...our Precious....God's gift....We Love you and will do everything possible to help you, Mommy and Daddy as we move on with Sis Zie in our Hearts.....and, Zie...Gizmo Kitty is safe....he knows you Love him....and he Loves YOU! Thank you friends and family for your loving, kind words....God Bless.
