Patricia (Pat) Schieffer peacefully passed away on May 17, 2019. Pat was born on October 8, 1938 to Fred and Olene Feuerbacher and lived in Austin her entire life. She graduated from Austin High School, and in 1958, she married Dan Schieffer. They were blessed with two sons, Mike and Mitch, in 1962. Pat worked as an administrator for Texas Rehabilitation Commission for more than 20 years.
She loved music throughout her life and sang in several different women’s and mixed choral groups, and she was a lifelong Longhorns fan, but her greatest passion was being a mother. Counselor, cheerleader, encourager, nurse, and even Cub Scout den mother, she relished all of the roles that mothers take on for their children. Pat will be remembered as a loving and compassionate mother, grandmother, wife, and friend.
Pat was preceded in death by her son Mark, her parents Fred and Olene, her husband Dan, and her sister Betty Burrell. Pat is survived by her son Mike and his wife Yvette, her son Mitch and his wife Shelly, and her grandchildren Kalyn, Sydney, and Daniel Schieffer.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, May 25 at 10 a.m. at Weed Corley Fish 3125 N. Lamar Blvd., Austin, TX 78705.
