Pat, as she was affectionately known, married the love of her life, Halsema A. Pinho, in Patterson on August 20, 1959, and of this union they were blessed with two sons.

The greatest joy in Pat's life was simply being a wife, mother, and grandmother and spending time with those she loved. She will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all.

Those she leaves to cherish her memory include her two sons, Halsema A. "Hal" Pinho Jr. and his wife Vanessa and Jeffery Pinho and his wife Pauline; four grandchildren, Hayden Pinho, Hunter Pinho and companion Hayden Adams, Bryce Ronsonet and his fiancée Jenna Alleman, and Abby Ronsonet; two great grandchildren, Brody Ronsonet and Alaina Alleman; as well as a host of nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.
