Patricia A. Decklever

Pat Decklever, 84, of Cheyenne passed away November 2 at Davis Hospice Center surrounded by her family.
Pat was born October 31, 1934 in Chickasaw County, Iowa. Throughout her youth she worked alongside her dad assisting with many field chores and that is likely when she started singing. She had a beautiful voice and sang in Glee Club and the Mixed Chorus throughout her high school years. She sang with joy and kept the love of music throughout her life.
As an adult she spent her years working in the medical field in hospitals or doctor offices. Her artistic abilities weren’t limited to singing as she also enjoyed floral decorating and had her own business and received many awards from Home Interiors when Pat and Mel lived in Colorado.
Pat spent many hours alongside Mel when they traveled and volunteered for “Laborers for Christ”.
Pat valued the special times that her children and their extended families would gather and be together.
She is survived by her husband, Melvin, son, Jim Decklever (Toni), daughters, Vickie Alumbaugh (Jeff), Debbie Russell (Rob), Kellie Erickson, Joni Amos and Laurie Allen; 13 grandchildren and 30 great grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by a son, Curtis; her parents, Walter and Josephine Goddard and sisters, Phoebe Lacour and Irene Gauger.
A service will be at 3:00 p.m. on November 7, 2018 at Our Savior Lutheran Church, Cheyenne.
Memorials may be made to Our Savior Lutheran Church Building Fund, 5101 Dell Range Blvd., Cheyenne, WY 82001.
