Patricia was an LPN for 32 years working as a clinical assistant for a pediatrician and later for an internist in an Oregon City, Ore. clinic. She worked a Pediatric Hot Line to assist the doctors for six years prior to her retirement. She was a past president of her local Oregon chapter of the American Association of Medical Assistants and was active for many years in the organization helping to improve nursing care at that level.

Patricia was preceded in death by her parents Alfred and Beulah Becker of Milwaukie, Ore.; and son Scott Reiser of Junction City, Ore.

Pat loved to travel and has introduced many of her friends to Hawaii, her favorite place, and to many places in Mexico along with trips to Europe, Peru, South Pacific and Latin America. She would always call a friend and ask them to join us on another adventure.

Now, she leaves us for her greatest adventure.

Upon her request, no services will be held. In lieu of flowers, please send donations in Patricia’s name to: Odyssey Hospice Health Care Inc., 1730 E. River Road, Suite 107, Tucson, AZ 85718.
