Annabelle Mansion, Patricia Brast Another victim of Patricia Brast!!!! Burleson Texas

I am a former employee of Patricias.I am heart broken to read all of this crap!!!Not one of these complaints were ever filed by a bride!Its not hard to figure out who these complaints came from!I worked for Patricia for the better part of last year and she is definetly a different breed of people.My daughter and I stayed the night at the Mansion several times with Patricia.While there my daughter asked if she could look at some of Patricias newspaper articles.Indeed she was a Beauty Queen!She still is in the eyes of my daughter and I!!!I left on not so good terms, but would never hurt someones dreams because of it!As far as the catering business complaint,Your darn right you had to feed the employees.You also fed your employees.The food was already paid for by the bride and Patricia always asked before offering food to others.This came about because the caterers were taking home the left over food which was already paid for by the Mansion!Also,you would be paranoid too if almost all of the employees you hired lied to you or stole from you!How dare anyone say anything about her partying and being a drunk!!She always took people out and payed for it!We went out to eat with her numerous times and never once did she drink anything but ice tea!!I must say my daughter and I were beside ourselves when we read these lies!Patricia,I am so sorry you had to go through this!If I felt that any of this were true I would have stayed quiet!I always told you to ignore what others say and hold your head high!Please continue to do so!Love always!!!

All I saw was Ms. Patricia on the TV station and she has a beautiful place but she also has a beautiful BIG Overhead and that is not a one room shack that she has but a GLORIOUS, BEAUTIFUL, ANTIBELLUM SHOWPLACE OF A MANSION AND I KNOW IT IS HIGH MAINTENANCE.

THIS IS NOT WHERE YOU GO WHEN ALL YOU CAN AFFORD IS A JP OFFICE WEDDING.

THIS IS WHERE YOU GO WHEN YOU WANT A GALA, A MAGNIFICENT CELEBRATION IN THE TRADITION OF SCARLETT O'HARA AND RHETT BUTLER AND ALL OF THE ROMANCE AND GLAMOUR THAT GOES WITH IT.

IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD THE FIRST-CLASS DELUXE LUXURY CELEBRATION AND EVERYTHING THAT GOES WITH IT,THIS PLACE IS OBVIOUSLY NOT FOR YOU.

Hello,

I don't work at annabelle mansion or know these employees. But I have dealt a few times with Patricia. And I know this...I live in Wylie and Patricia did open a school for austistic children called "jeffrey's discovery". I knew that the school wasn't able to receive enough donations to continue and I can 100% verify that a new - non profit company is now in that same building.

Also, it's got to be obvious to people reading, that the people complaining about Patricia care nothing about the brides going there, and that's pretty sad. If you have a problem with someone, fight them, don't hurt others, especially others that are planning their wedding!!

The internet can be very useful when used for the right reasons. When vindictive people get a hold of it and use it for abuse, it can be devastating. The vicious lies that are being told on Patricia are unbelievable. How could anyone be this full of venom and jealously. This is a hoax and I would like to see proof of any of these
vicious lies.
It is a shame when people have no life of their own and use their time in such a destructive way. I can only feel sorry for them.
Patricia has been a successful business woman for 16 years and is honest to a fault. Patricia is always helping anyone- employees, family members, Charities, homeless shelters but unfortunately there are always those who will take advantage. No one deserves to have their character assassinated like this; especially someone who has given their heart and soul to give back to the community. She and her husband started a school for autistic children in 2003. (They even lied and attacked this.)She and her husband spent almost 2/3 million dollars on the school. They rented it out to another non-profit school recently. They were having trouble getting financial donations and could not continue. Patricia has never experienced animosity toward her or her family before. She is more hurt over what they have said about her husband, daughter and son than she is of herself.
When the first abusive report came out in late July 2008; Patricia wanted to take the high road and not even acknowledge it. The same people started their rip-off reports back up after she had the annual Christmas party at the mansion which was the best Christmas party ever. They cannot stand the fact that she is moving on. We know the 3 or 4 people who are directly responsible for this even though they are hiding behind anonymity. One of them even called me to join the (Destroy Annabelle Mansion & Patricia club) started by Sue Veroneau & Tami Winn. They are trying to recruit anyone they can to join in their vendetta against Annabelle & Patricia.
Sue came to work for Patricia as a temporary painter in 2003 for $10.00 an hour, who had recently been a dog kennel worker. Patricia molded her into her operations manager, paid $5,000 on her a new truck gave her much more of a salary than she deserved. Patricia would give her time off whenever needed. She gave her large Christmas bonuses. Patricia really liked Sue as a friend, but when she was making huge financial mistakes continuously; Patricia had to make a change for the sake of business. Sue is what you would call a functioning alcoholic or at first she could function but with all the financial mistakes she was making, we think is was catching up with her. Tami first got upset when Patricia started to add more florist to her vendor list because some brides did not want to use her and were bringing in there own florist. Tami took full advantage of Patricia by using her for free advertising such as NBC 5 which Tami never paid $4,500 to NBC5. She really didn't win it, they only let her win it because she was Annabelle's florist. The We channel Platinum weddings. Patricia included Tami to help Tami's florist A Magic Moment floral & Design. She also let Tami do another T.V. show at the mansion, Wedding Central on the We channel. Tami has an eloquent way with words which she used to make bride's doubt Patricia. Tami is 27 years old and has talked to Patricia (a grandmother) like she is less than a rat; So much for respecting your elders. Tami mother is a palm and tarot card reader who would try to convince everyone at the mansion that she was the real deal and conviced some to spend money for their readings (What ever, I prefer to leave that in Gods hands. Tami doesn't care about the brides or she wouldn't have sabotaged them just to hurt Annabelle's reputation. Annabelle Mansion is a private residence as well as a business.
This all started February of 2008, you would think that by December of 2008 a mentally healthy person would move on, but it is apparent this is not the case.
