Pat embraced life with an infectious spirit. Her legacy will live on through life lessons she taught us and the love she shared.

Her heart was as expansive as her spirit. She was a long-time member of First Presbyterian Church Tulsa.
Pat's love for life defined her joyful journey. With friends and family, she enjoyed games of bridge, jazz music, bowling, golf, travel and serving others. A true and loyal sports fan, she always rooted for and supported the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, Oklahoma Sooners and Chicago Cubs.
