She was born September 30, 1934 in St. Louis, MO, daughter of William and Maurine Gratz Selig. She married Earl L. McIntyre on April 23, 1954.

Surviving are her husband, Earl, Bloomington; daughter, Debbie Nord, Bloomington and son, Tim McIntyre, Austin, TX. Also surviving are four grandchildren, Melissa (Tom) Waterson, Matthew (Missy) Nord, Mike (Emily) Nord and Allen McIntyre and 11 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her son-in-law, Dr. Harold Nord and her brother, William Selig.

Patricia enjoyed her time as owner and operator of her antique store, Pat's Little Corner in Bloomington. She was an avid sports fan and especially loved the St. Louis Cardinals as well as the ISU Redbirds.

Pat had an infectious spirit of kindness and compassion. Most of all she loved people. Anyone who called her friend, which was potentially anyone she encountered, experienced her genuine interest, desire to help, and deep affection.

Pat was a loving and devoted wife to Earl for 66 years. It was a rare thing to see them apart, and their love for one another was a joy to behold.

Pat was an amazing mom and the absolute best Nanny a grandchild could hope for.

Pat in her quiet wisdom would remind us in our grief the truth of her favorite Bible verse: "Soon, he will wipe away every tear from our eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away."
