Pat went to nursing school in Florida, and would later be employed as a lab/EKG technician at LDS Hospital. She moved from Salt Lake City to West Jordan City where she met her future husband and Police Officer, Tom Hill. He encouraged her to apply for a Records Clerk position that was available at the time for West Jordan Police Department, which she got. Later she would move into a dispatching position. She really wanted to test for the Fire Department, and after a couple of times she passed. She was the first woman firefighter, for West Jordan City, and an EMT. She retired from the Fire Department in 2004. She worked for the WJ Police Department from 2008- 2013. In all she worked nearly 30 years for West Jordan City. And she received a Public Safety Star in 1999 after saving people from a burning apartment complex. She moved to Nephi in 2013 where she made many friends. She loved running and participated in many 5k marathons, football, hiking with her dogs, and supporting her great-grandsons in their sports. She was their biggest fan. We know she will continue to be their cheerleader. She will be in our hearts always. She was a hero in so many ways.

She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

The family would like to thank Dr. Taylor, CVMC, and Hospice, especially Angela for taking care of her. We would also like to thank the staff at the Victorian House Assisted Living for their tender care.
