With sadden hearts we lose a family member and friend. Patricia A. Clausen passed quietly on October 11.
Patricia was an only child born to Ed and Olive Kudrna, November 10, 1941. She was in the Coast Guard from April 1973-January 1995, retiring as a Chief Petty Officer. Patty (as known to her family and friends) had been to numerous places while involved in her service career. However, she always considered where she grew up in Hoskins, her Home. Patty enjoyed growing up and spending much time with her cousins, as well as her friends and family, which continued throughout her lifetime till her passing. Patty loved her hounds and had many during her lifetime … a special one will be scattered with her to enjoy eternity with.
No services will be held, staying with Patty’s request. If you’d care to make a contribution on Patty’s behalf, two important organizations she held close to her heart are: Pedee Women’s Club’s Soldiers Fund, 12950 Kings Valley Hwy, Monmouth OR 97361, or Heartland Humane Shelter and Care, 398 SW Twin Oaks Circle, Corvallis OR 97333.
