Obituary of Patricia D. Myers
Patricia D. Myers, age 84 of Eagan MN and formerly Little Rock AR, passed away on Monday, November 18, 2024. Pat was born October 16, 1940 in Dallas TX to T.D. and Kathleen (Clark) Whiteman. A lifelong member of the Methodist Church, Pat was raised in Little Rock and attended the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville, where she met her future husband, Frank E. Myers. After college, Pat lived in several east Arkansas towns, supporting her husband’s early career as a high school teacher and football coach while working as a teaching assistant. She and her husband then settled in North Little Rock where Pat worked as an office manager for a local optometrist. In 2017, Pat moved to Eagan, MN to be closer to relatives as she entered assisted living. Her family will remain eternally grateful for the warm and loving care she received from the nurses and staff at the Commons on Marice and from Grace Hospice.
Pat is survived by her children, Mark (Kristen) Myers and Jason (Joyce) Myers, her grandchildren Chip, Nicholas, Claire, and Henry, her sisters Linda Brown and Holly Mathisen, and several nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband, parents, and sister Susan Hestir.
A memorial will be held in Little Rock at a future date. In lieu of flowers, Pat’s family requests that donations be made to any of her favorite charities: the USO, Humane Society, Paws for Purple Hearts, or the American Heart Association.
