Patricia Irene Metzger

Patricia "Pat" Irene Metzger, age 82, of Fouke, Arkansas, died on Friday, October 3, 2025, at her home, surrounded by her family.

Pat was born on January 18, 1943, in Meadville, Pennsylvania, and spent most of her life in Fouke, where she built lasting connections with her community and family.

Pat enjoyed watching Hallmark movies and listening to music from the 1950s and '60s- especially classic country and rock and roll.

Pat loved her fur babies -Chico, Runt, and Sissy -who brought her joy and companionship throughout the years. She was preceded in death by her husband, Kenneth Ray Metzger; her father, Clair Moore Sr.; her mother, Ethelyn Moore; and one brother, Clair Moore Jr.
