Since her husband was in the U.S. Army, they moved often, but returned to the Spokane area after his discharge and settled on a hobby farm north of the city. Patricia was a true pioneer woman.

In 1993, she and her husband moved to Clark County, WI and settled in Greenwood in 1995, where she has resided until her death.
     She had many interests, but especially loved being with her grandchildren, painting, crocheting mittens for school kids, horses and dogs, fishing, camping, and being outdoors.
