Pat’s greatest treasures were her family. And one of the most valuable memories her family received from her was the family cruise they all took to Hawaii in 2022. Times with family and friends were always at the top of her list. Pat was most fortunate to have visited all 7 continents and each of the fifty states. She loved to travel!
Pat also had a love for life, learning and giving back to the community. She was always up to try something different, go someplace new and learn about something she didn’t know. After majoring in Russian, she later returned to school to become a CPA, which became her career. Among her many activities were being a board member of University Bank, a founding member of Management Women Green Bay and a financial supporter of high school education for girls in Zambia.
Pat will be dearly missed by her family and friends. We would like to thank the caregivers from Avow and Grande Living for helping Pat stay as comfortable as possible while battling Pancreatic cancer. They were angels to all of us.
A private service and burial will be held at St Leo’s Catholic Church on Tuesday, December 10, 2024.
If anyone wishes to make a donation in her name, a gift may be sent to the Patricia A. Hock scholarship Fund, St. Norbert College/Attn: Advancement Office, 100 Grant St., DePere, WI 54115, or Pancreatic Cancer - American Cancer Association.
