Pat was a lover of March Madness Basketball, OSU Football, and history. She was a dedicated grandmother that was the biggest fan and spectator for all of their activities. Pat was active in her local card club for 40 years, was a big card shark and enjoyed playing Chinese Checkers. She was an avid reader. Her door was always open to people in need of a safe place to stay. She was unstinting in her generosity. She always honored and recognized any first responders and military personnel by giving them a hug. Pat retired after 30 years at R.E. Condit and was the "den mother" to her fellas.
