Aggie Pat was a public school educator, who after graduating from Georgia College, Milledgeville Georgia, taught in the public schools of Clayton, Hall, and Coffee Counties. She taught for Fourty-Seven years, the last twenty plus years as the Coffee County Hospital Homebound teacher. She had many happy and a few sad memories of the injured and ill homebound students she taught in grades one through twelve. Needless to say, she loved her students, and they loved her. Teaching, especially reading, was her life. Aggie Pat was a devoted wife of fifty years and loving mother and a faithful member of First Baptist Church in Douglas, GA. Special people in her life were all her dogs, whom she dearly loved. During her retirement, she spent numerous days with her large circle of high school and college friends. She will be missed by many.
