Moore; and her granddaughter, Danielle Moore.  She is survived by her daughters and husbands, Colleen and Craig Young and Traci and Ben Sutley; by her sons, Barry and Curtis Moore (and his wife Sandy); her brothers, Butch and Billy Thomas; and by her beloved nieces, Annette Miller and Kerry Marini. Pat will also be missed by several nephews, nieces, in-laws and especially by her nine grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Patricia was loved by all who knew her and was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend.  She had a big heart and a great sense of humor. She welcomed all and helped anyone in need without hesitation.
