Pat was a 1960 graduate of Elmwood High School and was a member of Mt. Zion United Brethren Church. She had a great passion for landscaping, gardening, and yardwork, as well as painting, decorating, and artwork. Pat was constantly busy doing something around the house, spending time with her friends, and daily devotions were very important to her. Pat and Rod enjoyed spending their winters in Haines City, Florida, and are grateful for the relationships and friends they made. Her greatest love in life though, was spending time with her family.
Friends will be received from 10 AM – 12 PM on Tuesday, August 29, 2023, at Mt.
