Pat’s life was filled with creativity and love for her family. She found joy in quilting and sewing, often teaching these skills to her granddaughters and creating treasured quilts for those she loved. Cooking and baking were also passions of hers; making cookies with her granddaughters was a favorite pastime they eagerly anticipated. Pat shared her knowledge of canning with her daughter and granddaughters, passing down tips and tricks that will be remembered for generations. She had a special fondness for ripe garden tomatoes and blackberries, which brought simple yet profound joy to her life.

A devoted woman of faith, Pat was deeply involved in her church communities. She played the organ for many years at the First Church of God in Jefferson City, where she also served as a Sunday School teacher and board member. Later in life, she attended the First Church of God - Doe Run, where she played both piano and organ for services as well as weddings and funerals.

Her faith was evident in every action she took—a shining example of a godly woman with a giving heart.

Pat’s warmth extended far beyond her family. Those who knew her felt the radiance of her kindness and generosity. Whether playing a competitive game of Scrabble or Spades with loved ones or sharing laughter with friends from church or quilting classes, Pat brought light into every room she entered. Her talents as a seamstress and quilt maker were matched only by her skill at Scrabble.
