Patricia Eversole Obituary
1943-2017
Patricia Gayle (Morgan) Eversole passed away, surrounded by her loving family, on July 16, 2017, after a long struggle with cancer. Pat was born on August 5, 1943 in Dallas, Texas, to Arthur Monroe Morgan Sr. and Mary Francis (Neely) Morgan.
Pat attended Sam Houston State University where she was a member of the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority and met her college sweetheart and future husband Gerald "Jerry" Eversole. She began her career in education as a teacher in Liberty, and was a dedicated school counselor in the Humble ISD for over 20 years where she positively impacted the lives of her students and coworkers. After retiring, Pat volunteered at the Star of Hope Mission and fully enjoyed her role as "Nana" to her grandsons.
Pat was a devoted and much beloved wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother and friend. In addition to spending time with her family and friends, Pat's greatest joys included reading, gardening, family beach trips, annual reunions with her sorority sisters and hosting holiday gatherings. Pat truly had a gift for making others feel special and her beautiful smile could light up a room. Her pleasant nature and positive attitude lifted the spirits of those around here. She touched many hearts and will be deeply missed by all that knew and loved her.
Pat was preceded in death by her grandparents Allie and Tallie Neely; parents; brother Arthur Monroe Morgan Jr. of Terrell; and brother-in-law Neil Mask of Houston. She is survived by her husband of 50 years Jerry; her adoring sons Dayne and Lance, and his wife Shelly, and grandsons Hayden and Luke, all of Houston. She is also survived by her sister JoAnn King and husband Jack of Dallas; sister Loretta Kamp of Garland; sister-in-law Karen Mask of Houston; brother-in-law Mark Eversole and his wife Joanye of Flatonia; sister-in-law Joyce Eversole; nieces and nephews Tom Johnson, Kathy Sue Walker, Stewart Edley King, Scott Morgan, Dana Morgan, Debbie Melton, Greg Eversole and Jason Eversole; and a host of cherished friends.
The family wishes to extend special thanks for the loving care Pat received from Karen Mask and Gay Sabom.
In lieu of flowers, and for those desiring, memorial contributions may be directed to the Star of Hope Mission.
A funeral service will be held on Friday, July 21 2017, at 11 am in the Grand Chapel at Forest Park Lawndale with interment immediately following. All are invited to greet the family during a reception to be held at Forest Park Lawndale.

MaMa was a bright light and great fountain of love for us. 11 years ago (year 2006) I had the honour to receive MaMa and PaPa in Beijing China. We spent 6 days together full of wonderful great attraction visits to Great Wall, Forbidden City, Summer Palace etc etc. MaMa's sweet and caring nature was so impressive to Lecky Beijing people, we since developed a life-long friendship afterwards. After 10 years we finally had a reunion with MaMa in Houston last year (year 2016), which liked a dream came true. This picture was selected to accompany MaMa here, to memorize her lovely smile and gently warm touching on our shoulders. MaMa may you rest in arm of Peace and Love of Paradise Heaven. With Forever LOVE, Jean & Florence

I worked with Pat at the Humble 9th Grade campus. I really enjoyed watching her interact with staff and students in the counseling office. She was so fun, and a very good teammate and counselor. So joyful. Jerry and her always contributed to a student in need, and we had a blast at the chili cook offs. I miss her. She also student taught in Conroe my home town.

Pat introduced herself to me when I first moved into the neighborhood. I was young, single and excited to have moved to the Heights. She rang my door bell with a radiant smile, handed over a house warming gift and invited me over to her home for tea - without even knowing me. She was a very kind, absolutely beautiful sweet soul. I'll miss her greatly. God bless Jerry, Dayne and family.
