Pat enjoyed going on trips with her sisters, doing crossword puzzles, singing and dancing, spending time with grand and great-grandbabies, cooking, and sewing. She loved the Christmas Holiday, helping others, and watching Lifetime TV.   Pat worked in the medical field for years, fulfilling her love of helping others.

Pat had a heart of gold. There was never a time that you walked into her home when she didn't have a fresh plate of food ready for you. She was always prepared to handle the calmest and rowdiest of groups and always made sure that everyone felt like family when they entered her home.

For 48 years, Pat was a devoted and loving wife to our beloved brother, Lonnie Begley. We will miss our daughter, our mother, our grandmother, our great-grandmother, our aunt, our sister, and true friend to all of us. Rest in Heaven, Sister Pat, see you at the house.
