I’m writing this letter to inform people about the type of person and character of Patricia Jones “PJ” Ricks. First, she never turns you down. She’s one of the busiest people I know. Yet, she takes time to help you when there is a need.

My washer and dryer went on the blink and I called Patricia. She took the time to assist me in getting them repaired. I don’t know how she knows so many people, but I believe she knows everyone in Salisbury. If she doesn’t know the particular answer to your need, she will tell you that she will get back with you. She never forgets, and will either assist on the spot or she will give you names and telephone numbers of the businesses or people that can serve you. All I have to do at that point is to call the sources she has given me.

You can’t say there are a lot of people like that these days, especially those that will go out of their way to do the kind of things she does. I admire her for being that caring and decidated to helping others. It is a rare characteristic these days.

I’m very privledged and blessed to have her as a church member and someone willing to go all out to help others. I’ve witnessed her doing to same for others. So, it’s not just me. Many members of Crown in Glory Lutheran Church feel the same as I do.

Know that there are many more things that she has helped me with over the years. She has never asked for anything in return other than being a friend and sister in Christ.

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.
