Patricia’s heart for service began with her father, who cared for his community by selling quality shoes.
As a young woman, Patricia knew the importance of providing a quality product and followed in her
father’s footsteps by becoming a saleswoman. This instilled a foundation of support and care that she
continued when she was chosen to establish a school-aged childcare facility. She provided essential
safety and quality after-school care for students to allow parents in her community to finish their
workdays.
Joe loved fishing, woodworking, target shooting, and reading. Patricia was an avid reader, collector, and
enjoyed spending time completing arts and crafts. Most of all, Joe and Patricia enjoyed spending time
with family and friends.
