Patricia Grace Bahler passed away March 11, 2020, at the age of 94. She was born on September 21, 1925, in Neenah Wisconsin to Lloyd and Estelle McCrary. Her father was a dentist who trained at Northwestern University in Chicago. Her Mother was a homemaker who also assisted in the dental office.
Pat grew up in Neenah with a younger sister Ruth. She was on the high school swim team, and enjoyed lifeguarding at a newly built pool complex in her neighborhood. Following high school, she attended Beloit College, transferring for her sophomore year to the University of Wisconsin, Madison from which she graduated with a major in art. She met her husband, Thomas Lee Bahler, at the University Presbyterian Church where Tom was the organist. They married and moved to Logan in 1949 after Tom completed his PhD studies and accepted a faculty position at Utah State University. Pat volunteered at the Logan Presbyterian Church and provided flower arrangements from her garden for the sanctuary.

She was also a longstanding member of the Logan knitters club. In 1967 Pat obtained a nursing degree from Weber State University and worked for many subsequent years at the Logan Hospital Surgery unit. She ended her career as a charge nurse at Sunshine Terrace.
