Pat lived a full life as a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She was an avid St Louis Cardinal fan, loved bird watching and she was an avid storyteller. Pat would proudly tell the history of Valley City to anyone that would listen. Pat loved to cook and she was famous for her popcorn balls and grilled cheese sandwiches. She was a waitress for many years at the Red Dome Inn in Pittsfield, as well as the Griggsville Drive-In. She also worked many years at the Griggsville City Hall. Most of all she loved her family and friends and instilled good values in her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren that have served them well. To know her was to love her and be loved by her. She will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
At her request private services will be held. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Amy Nicole Reichert, RN Scholarship and sent to Airsman-Hires Chapel, Box 513, Pittsfield, Il. 62363.
