Patricia Draine Obituary

Draine, Patricia Lee
February 14, 1931 - October 5, 2010
Patricia Lee Draine, living in Pacific Palisades, joined the Lord on October 5, 2010, at her home with her family and loved ones around her. Pat was born February 14, 1931 in Winslow, Arizona to Hueston and Jonnie Dagg. Pat was married to Bob, the love of her life, for 58 years. Pat and Bob's adoring family includes their daughter Janet, married to Lad Odell, and their four wonderful children Molly, Toby, Beret and Cooper; son Cameron, married to Summer, and their two wonderful children Seth and Jaime; and Pat and Bob's son Steven, who joined the Lord at an early age. She is also survived by her brother William Dagg. Pat attended a boarding school in Glendale, Emaculate Heart High School, and went on to George Washington University, where she became a member of the Theta sorority. She moved to Dallas, Texas to become one of the first models for Neiman Marcus, and then to Los Angeles to become a flight attendant for Western Airlines. One of Pat's passions in life was encouraging and supporting children, from grades 7 through college, providing scholarships with the assistance of her Draine Family Charitable Foundation, as well as becoming a certified CASA advocate to protect abused and neglected children. Pat enjoyed membership with Bob at the Bel Air Bay Club, Johnathan Club, California Club and Los Angeles Country Club. Friends and family are invited to join the family for a celebration of Pat's life on October 24, 2010 at the Bel Air Bay Club, Upper Club, located at 16801 Pacific Coast Highway, Pacific Palisades, telephone 310-230-4700, from 2:00 - 4:00pm. In lieu of flowers, we would like to honor Dr. James Davis and the Geriatrics Department of UCLA.
