"We had vacationed here and liked Mason ('ounty and wanted to live here. "'We began building last February, while we were still living in our California home. In April we came to Washington, and stayed in Port Orchard while completing our rural home. We were just ready to start painting the house when it burned down. We had to start all over. "We went back to Los Angeles. We'd sold our house there and had to be out by the end of May, so we moved a trailer onto our Arcadia area land and started building once again in July. The house is completed now, except for the basement." When Pat came to the Shelton area it was with a deep desire to work for the welfare of animals. She volunteered her services to Mason County Citizens For Animals, and has assisted with office duties and served as a salesperson in the MCCFA Thrift Shop. 'Tve always been interested in animals; their control and their well-being," she declares, "and I'd like to be a part of a worthwhile project to benefit animals." Pat was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota. After her graduation, she was married to Glenn Neely and the couple left for California. "We lived there from 1952 until coming to Sheiton in 1978," Pat reminisces. "In California I worked for Pacific Telephone as an engineering aide. "This was a very diversified job involving drawing, computer work and secretarial duties for engineers, it was demanding work. The engineers in the planning group gave me a general idea and after that I took over. I gathered figures, ran a computer program and drew a graph to be published. 1 did it all, and they simply proofed it. "I worked for four engineers, and they all delegated work to me. They taught me my job. Then they sat back and watched me do it!'" For IS years Pat Neely held this job, However, she sometimes took time off in the summer to devote her time to a Girl Scout troop. "I became a Girl Scout leader when my daughter, Heidi, now 24 years old, became a Brownie. I was a leader for 11 years. Heidi and her husband and their two children now live in Kent. "Our son, Bill, his wife and their two children live in Port Orchard. Kriss, another daughter, lives on Whidbey Island with her husband and their two children. Glenn Jr. and our daughter, Jade, still live in California." In the city Pat and her family lived in a condominium. "We had a cock-a-poo," she recalls. "We paid a dollar for ,him. He was originally Kriss' dog, but he became my pet. We also had a huge black cat; and mice; and guinea pigs; and whatever else the kids brought home!" Pat and her husband now own two dogs. The golden Lab is called Fang, and the German shepherd answers to Muskett. The young dogs will soon attend Mason County Schutzhund Club obedience classes. Golf is Pat Neely's sport, and she plans to join a local club. Her hobbies include the refinishing of furniture, sewing, cooking and horticulture. iii "1 make iny own clothing," she says, "and I've completed two handmade baby quilts. Now I'm planning a king-size quilt, i quilt them, tot). "'Outdoor gardening interests me as much as the growing of houseplants. I'm looking forward to landscaping our property in the spring." Pat Neely enjoys cooking. "it's a pleasure," she says. "Years of cooking for a family can be work, but now there's ]ust the two of us and it's fun. My husband cooks, too, but I do the baking.
