Growing up, Pat enjoyed playing a variety of sports, including track, basketball and volleyball. Shortly after graduating from high school, she attended Beauty School and began her career as a beautician. She wed John Bufkin on June 30, 1959, raising two sons – Lance and Derek – as they followed John’s work from Louisiana to Venezuela, and to England before settling in Kingwood, TX in 1989. Shortly thereafter, she began her career as an antique dealer, spending over 25 years as “Patrician Antiques” at the Antique Gallery in Spring, TX.
In addition to her passion for antiques, Pat enjoyed cooking, her dogs, watching “In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley” (Baptist minister) on Sunday mornings, bible study, watching tennis, movies on the Hallmark channel, and spending time with her grandchildren.
Pat is survived by her husband of 60 years, John Bufkin; two sons, Lance Bufkin and his wife Stacy, and Derek Bufkin and his wife Jenny; her brother, Edmond Feith; and her two grandchildren Madison and Preston.
