Roots
Pat was born on the Fourth of July in a small South Carolina town at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Her parents were from the "old school" believing that parents should control their children, and nuture and teach them responsible attitudes toward life. Faith, family, and personal responsibility were fundamental values in her home. Conservatism was not a word used but practiced.
After graduating college in 1960, she moved to Brevard County, Florida and began her teaching career. She has spent over 30 years as a public servant.
