Pat was a graduate of Deering High School. She married the love of her life, Everett 'Shep' Stults, after graduation. Pat and Shep shared 62 wonderful years of marriage. She was an active member of campfire girls growing up, and later in life, she became a Girl Scout leader. Pat was also active in the Windham Garden Club and a life time member of Deering 59, Portland, Order of the Eastern Star. Pat and Shep enjoyed square and round dancing. She was best known for her hand crafted porcelain dolls, a love she shared with others by demonstrating at schools and nursing homes. Pat also helped several of her children and grandchildren to make their own dolls, along with giving classes. Pat worked at the Windham Schools so that she would have the same hours as her children.
