She was a Baptist by faith and attended Community Bible Baptist Church before her health declined.

Pat had a heart of gold, loved people and was well known everywhere she went. She was quick to make you laugh and could whip up the best peanut butter fudge around. She worked many years as a waitress at Fish Nest and the OK Café where she made many lifelong friends.
