Pat married the love of her life, Earl Anton Stavinoha, on June 23, 1957. They shared 42 years of marriage before his passing on October 28, 1999.
Pat was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Earl Anton Stavinoha, and her parents, M.L. and Marie Leard.
She is survived by her children, Earl A. Stavinoha Jr. and his longtime partner, Shelagh Kasinger, and his daughter, Jessica Schreiber, and her family; Elizabeth Stavinoha and her son, Joshua Clepper, and his family; Eric Stavinoha and his wife, Kristy, and their children, Madison Becker and her husband, Chaz Becker, and Sean Stavinoha; and Elaine Clevenger and her husband, Andrew, and their children, Lane, Avery, and Aubrey Clevenger.
As an only child, Pat considered her children and the family they built to be among life’s greatest blessings. She was incredibly proud of her family and cherished the memories they made together.
Pat had a love for gardening, enjoyed cooking, and was always up for a good game. She loved to travel, experience new places, and enjoy a good glass of wine along the way. She also cherished time spent on her back porch, taking in the beautiful view of Lake Conroe. Known for her determination and strong-willed spirit, Pat approached life on her own terms. She knew what she wanted and wasn’t easily persuaded otherwise — a quality that those who knew her well will always remember.
Above all, Pat loved her family. She leaves behind generations of loved ones and a lifetime of memories that will continue to be shared and treasured.
While her family will miss her dearly, there is comfort in knowing that Pat is reunited once again with her beloved Earl. Together again, their love story continues, and the memories they created will live on in the hearts of those they leave behind.
