She loved traveling with her late husband Woody, her current husband Burt, and her daughters. She was blessed to travel all over the world.


Pat was dedicated to her family. She was a den mother for boy scouts and attended her children's and grandchildren's school sporting and band events. She enjoyed taking ballroom dances lessons with her husband Burt, and dancing to the Moore Brothers band and Nothin Fancy band. She volunteered for the American Heart Association, Cancer Society, and delivered meals for Meals on Wheels. She enjoyed crafting, and had a thriving business with her daughter, Lauren.
