Through the years Pat loved cheering on her team and didn't hesitate to write to the current coach if she saw something that didn't meet with her approval. Another one of her interests was the Atchison Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Store, where she served as president for many years. She was a member of the Auxiliary for over 56 years. At 93 Pat was still driving to the thrift store on Monday's to help out in the mornings. Pat was born in Atchison on August 22, 1923 and early on moved with her parents to Kansas City.

She was a member of the Governors Council of the Arts for two years. Pat attended Sister Helen's and Dennis McCarthy's art classes at Benedictine College in her senior.
