Pat was born June 4, 1930 in Independence, MO.  Before retiring she worked in the grocery industry for many years.  She is a beloved Wife, Mom, Grandma and "Great"-Grandma.  Her family meant very much to her.  Over the years, she enjoyed the annual Mother's Day trip with her girls to Sanibel Island, Florida.  She usually was the one who spotted the "Big Kahuna" on the beach.  With her sweet Mother's heart, the Apple of her eye was her son.  Trips to the Branson area to visit and play with him and his family were always something she looked forward to. Being the "Grand" and the "Great" to 25 kids was her delight.  Her home displayed their lives and accomplishments and how very proud of them she was.  She was also a special "Aunt Pat" to many nieces and nephews.  She loved them as her very own. These last "Golden Years" have been spent with Dad doing a little traveling and especially enjoying their beloved Dachshund's Fifel and Sue. While we are devastated, heartbroken and can't imagine our lives without Mom, we are confident and assured that she is saving a seat for us in Heaven.
