Pat has experienced quite a lot over the past 100 years.

She grew up in Illinois and later worked as a model and stylist in Kling Studio, a well-known advertising agency at the time, in Chicago. Pat was featured in ads for Tucker Automobile and Atlanta-based Coca-Cola.

But when it comes to her longevity, Pat credits a happy home life. She shared one with Walfred, her husband of 44 years until he died. Together, the couple had five children, eight grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

When she moved to Historic Roswell Place, Pat quickly became known for her love of golf, bingo and painting.

“We’re beyond excited to celebrate this milestone with her and hope the community will join us in honoring a century of her fabulous journey,” Historic Roswell Place executive director

If you wish to send Pat a card, you can send one to 75 Magnolia St, Roswell, GA 30075.
