A graveside service will be held Monday, January 12, 2026, at 11:00 A.M. at Spring Creek Cemetery in Aubrey, Arkansas. Arrangements are under the care of Roller-Citizens Funeral Home in Marianna.

The members of the Arkansas Craft Guild have been witness to Pat's years of dexterity and skill in making her classic sock monkeys and other figures, selling her work at the Arkansas Craft Gallery in Mountain View. A lot of love was being shared to generations of kids with these huggable toys, and getting one for each new baby had become a tradition for some happy customers. She will be missed. Sue Lukens, Sec.-Treas. of the Arkansas Craft Guild

I have so many childhood memories visiting at your house when I was growing up. I still remember the big tom cat, Toby , I loved so much. I loved to come as I loved each of you.
I have the flu and can’t come but my heart goes out to you Bob and your son, Libby and Margaret. I’ll be praying for comfort and will see Pat again in Heaven.

My prayers are with the family. Mrs. Pat was a wonderful person
