She began her professional career at WCTC and retired from MATC where she was the Associated Dean of Continuing Education. She pursued a lifelong enjoyment of continued learning. Always the go getter, Pat was full of joy, laughter and excelled at leadership and planning. She used her energetic skills to work with groups like Women to Women, College Endowment, 100 Women Who Care and even established the Tudor Oaks Activities Committee. For anyone who knew Pat what she cherished most in life was using her talents to plan parties, entertain, and enjoy grand adventures and trips with her friends and family. She was the glue of the family as nothing was more important and fun than spending time with the people she treasured most. She loved Christmas cookie baking and cooking, celebrating birthdays and holidays, annual trips to Disney World and attending all her kids, grandkids and great-grandkids kids sporting events and accomplished activities. Pat enjoyed stopping to take in the views and had refined taste for chocolate that she would enjoy daily. She had a strong passion for art and music which led her to always being in the center of the dance floor and to her joining the Milwaukee Bucks Seniorgies Dance Team. She truly treasured life and never missed out celebrating all of its big and small memories. Pat was a wonderful person and a welcoming friend to everyone she met. Her bright, positive, and admirable nature will be truly missed by all.
