On Friday, Sept. 13, 2019, lifelong Raymond resident Patricia Mae Snodgrass passed away peacefully at the age of 77.

Pat was survived by her husband and high school sweetheart of 56 years, Ivan, who resides at their family home, brother, Robert Allan of Raymond; two children, Leah Heintz (John) and Brett Snodgrass (Lori) both of Raymond, grandchildren, Jonathan, Brittany and Jacob, and great-grandson, Baker.

Pat was preceded in death by her mother, Rhoda K. Johnson, and stepfather, Earl V. Johnson. As a young girl she lost her father, Lindzey “Red” Bales, to a logging accident. She was a member of the Upper Skagit Indian tribe. Pat was a dedicated hard worker and put a labor of love into everything she did. In her early years, she worked as a waitress and cannery worker but ultimately became a homemaker helping to raise her kids and grandchildren. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and loved to cook for many elderly people in the community who needed help. Pat loved holidays and family gatherings. Any chance to spend time with her family was important to her. Pat was known for her caring and funny sense of humor and will be missed by many.

Family and friends will gather at Crossroads Church at 707 Commercial St. in Raymond on Saturday, Sept. 28, 2019, at 1 p.m. for a service and luncheon to follow. Arrangements are in care of Stoller’s Mortuary in Raymond, Washington. You may visit www.StollersMortuary.com to leave condolences for the family.
