Pat had a good soprano voice and enjoyed singing both in the Brazosport H.S. Acapella Choir and several church choirs. She was a devoted Christian and prayer warrior. Her most recent church membership is in the First Baptist Church of Lake Jackson, Texas.
Pat enjoyed decorating rooms and pretty flowers. She served as the chairman of the First Baptist Church flower decorating committee for several years. She volunteered to decorate churches and wedding reception areas for many couples and sometimes Paul took the photos. Pat and Paul loaded their minivan with lattices, candles, and flowers and headed out of town several times to provide wedding decorations for relatives.
Pat enjoyed decorating their home for Thanksgiving and Christmas and being hostess for extended family celebrations. Television cooking channel programs provided ideas and encouragement.
Pat and Paul made several special trips in their younger years. These included taking a nephew and niece to Disney World, church building trips to Nevada and Colorado, a vacation to the California coast, a visit to Alaska, a three week tour of Europe and a visit to the Holy Land in Israel.
However, sharing love with family and close friends, and praising the Lord were the most important things to her.
