Pat left us too early at the age of 68 from cancer. Pat grew up and raised her family in the Clear Lake area. She made lots of lifelong friends while farming.
For the last 18 years she lived with her great love and friend Chad Gapinski in Foley. Pat gave her all to everything she did. She loved canning, gardening, reading and fishing. Her homemade BBQ sauce and salsa are family favorites.
Pat will be deeply missed by Chad, her children and their spouses, Michael & Marie Neuman and Sheila & Todd Timmerman, her grandchildren Meghan (Adam) Starry, Andrew and Emily Neuman, Nichole and Tye Timmerman and great grandchildren Ayden and Dallis Starry.
She is also survived by her siblings and their spouses, Ellen & Jack Bender, Harry & Noreen McCalla, Janet & Doug Hamacher, Michael & Gayle McCalla, and many nieces, nephews and friends.
She is preceded in death by her parents Alice “Tootie” & Eugene McCalla, her sister Nancy and her infant son Nathan.
Per Pat’s request, there will be no services. Memorials preferred to St. Jude Medical Center.
