Pat and David’s daughter, Margaret was born in 1981. The family moved to St. Libory in 1985. Since 1976, Pat has worked as a line supervisor at the Fonner Park horse races.
She was a member of St. Libory’s Catholic Church and its CCW and the Central Nebraska Antique Tractor and Equipment Club.
Pat loved to bowl and had played on bowling leagues for many years. She also enjoyed reading, shopping, watching “Gunsmoke” on television, Starbuck’s, spending time with her grandchildren and her friends and co-workers at Fonner Park.

Every time I saw Pat at Fonner we shared stories about our daughters who were classmates at Central Catholic. She always had a smile and a pleasant greeting.
