Eventually, she became a Human Relations Specialist for the City of Winston-Salem and was elected vice-president, then president, of the North Carolina chapter of NAHRW (National Association of Human Rights Workers).
In 1988, Pat married Karl Beasley and settled in the magnificent Southwest. She returned to teaching and commuted between Magdalena and the Alamo Navajo Indian Reservation School, followed by a teaching stint at the local public school.
After retiring from teaching, Pat became a freelance writer for a county newspaper and an author.
Pat lives with her husband in Magdalena, New Mexico, where she delights in nature’s beauty and cares for animals. She treasures her bonds with the Navajo and Apache Indians of the nearby reservation.view less
