Beauty and the Beast

The BEAUTY part is Pat Dumont in this ad; the BEAST part is that Pat has terminal cancer.

I spoke with her in the Spring and while she's probably suffering greatly, she was cheerful and upbeat on the phone.
You can send a card to her at:
Pat Birch
P.O. Box 242
Mantorville, MN 55955
Or you can try calling her at 507.635.5839.  She wasn't up to having visitors then, but maybe she will be now.
