On March 8, 1975, Pat married the love of her life, Raymond G. Tuller in Wilsonville. The couple made their home in McCook and were the parents of two sons, Jason and Eric.

She loved attending Sunday School at the First Baptist Church in Wilsonville, where she would also sit in the back row during the service with her Aunt Ardith. After moving to McCook, Pat became a member of the First Baptist Church and later in life joined the Memorial Methodist Church where she also regularly attended BSF – Bible Study Fellowship. Pat worked in a variety of jobs over the course of her life, beginning at the Wilsonville Grocery Store, TRW, Stay-at-Home Mom, Secretary at 1st Baptist Church, Vic’s Popcorn, Arby’s and in her final years, Community Hospital Dietary.

Pat’s family was her pride and joy. She loved laughing with them, telling lame jokes, cooking for large groups, especially at Thanksgiving, and making Christmas cookies with the grandkids. Pat also enjoyed quilting, counted cross stitch, reading and travel. She and Ray visited forty-seven states together and many countries. Some of her favorite trips were to Hawaii, through the Panama Canal, the Caribbean and Alaska. The couple made many wonderful memories together.
