She attended college at Bismarck Junior College. Patricia was employed with the state of North Dakota for 30 plus years until her retirement in 2012.
Patricia enjoyed traveling to Arizona, spending time with her sisters, day trips with friends, golfing and spending time with family. She and her girls were very close – three peas in a pod. She was extremely proud of her 6 grandchildren and was very involved in watching and transporting them to their various activities. She will be dearly missed by them all as there are so many things that only she could do.
She is survived by her two daughters, Jessica (Daniel) Barth and their children, Jackson, Dominik, Ethan and Eli; Janelle (Jeramie) Middlestead and their children, Kadence and Elliot Middlestead; her siblings, Marcella Bernhardt, Edward (Angie) Geiger, Helen Moch, Frances Schoonover and Jane Barnes; and many nieces and nephews.
