Pat was born in Pensacola, FL on May 4, 1940 to the late Henry Thomas Wright and Era Brown. She passed away on August 25, 2017. She is now rejoicing in heaven with loved ones and claiming the promise of Jesus she is healed.
Pat graduated from Tate High School, class of 1958, and enjoyed many class reunions. Many of these classmates were lifelong friends. She retired from the Escambia County School District Payroll Department after 25 years of service.

Pat and I worked together at Century Memorial Hospital and we kept up with one another at different phases of our lives. She was a sweet lady. My first cousin Ernestine Joiner was a friend of hers in school through the years and we just happen to cross paths in late 70’s and early 80’s. She spent the night with me one night after a Christmas party and actually helped me clean up the kitchen at that time she taught me rinse dishes in cold water which I still do sometimes.
