Patsy Ruth (Reese) Foreman

Sept. 12, 1942 ~ Oct. 5, 2016

Patsy Ruth (Reese) Foreman died on Wednesday, Oct. 5, 2016 of a broken heart.

Pat was born Sept. 12, 1942 in Brownwood, Texas to Entis and Birdie Lancydane Reese.

She moved to Eunice, New Mexico for her Daddy to go to work in the oil fields when she was three years old.

After graduating from Eunice high school she attended “Beauty” school in Lubbock.

One weekend when she was headed home to Eunice on the Greyhound bus, a GI (named Stanley Franklin Foreman), got on the bus and took the very last seat, which happened to be right next to her.

That meeting was the start of a short, whirlwind courtship that culminated in them eloping to Mexico to get married.

Her parents had the last laugh as Stan and Pat had to get married again on US soil in order for the marriage to be recognized by the U.S. Air Force.

They were a team in life and now are reunited.
