Pat was born to Paul and Ethel (Tobias) Messner Sept. 3, 1934, in Paxton, Pa., and passed away Friday, April 17, 2015, in Edmond.

The family moved to Rome, N.Y., where Pat met her husband, Edmund Galbraith, who was stationed at Griffiss Air Force Base. They married on June 25, 1954. They lived various places, as Ed was training, including Kansas, Alabama and Panama City, Fla. When Ed was on a remote assignment in Alaska, Pat stayed with her family in Rome. After he returned, the family moved to Brunswick, Maine, before Ed was transferred to Germany.

In 1964, Ed was reassigned to Vance Air Force Base in Enid. Pat was active in many base clubs, including bridge and bowling. She helped with her children’s Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts troops. In 1969, Ed was assigned another remote tour to Vietnam, and after retirement they remained in Enid.

Pat was a member of Enid First Assembly and Primetimers group. She enjoyed painting, gardening, crossword puzzles, sewing, cleaning, bird and cat watching, shopping, skating, letter writing and decorating.
