After Harriet’s death she was loved by her second mother, Madge Bitler Roop, affectionately known as Maggie.On March 17, 1951, she was united in marriage to Conan Jennings Castle in Wichita, Kan.As a youngster, Patricia was active in Girl Scouts and enjoyed violin.Following graduation from Wichita High School East in 1947, she attended Doane College for two years, Wichita State University for one summer, and received her bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Northwestern University in 1951. In 1969 she completed a Master of Science degree in library science from Central Missouri State University (now University of Central Missouri.) Her teaching career included one and one-half years at the elementary school at Anshe Emit Synagogue in Chicago, Ill., one year at Ridge View Elementary School in Warrensburg, and 19 yearsas librarian at Whiteman Elementary School on Whiteman AFB.Patricia was raised in the Congregational Church, attended the First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and for many years was a member of First Presbyterian Church, where she was ordained a deacon and an elder, sang in the Chancel Choir, was active in Brown Bag Bible Study and served on many committees.
