Patsy Carol Whitehead

Patsy Carol Whitehead was born on January 13, 1950 in Lawton,

Oklahoma, the only child of the late Johnny and Johnnie Brown. At an early age Pat and her parents moved to Fresno, California where she

completed her elementary and high school education. Pat moved to

Oakland, California where she met and married Lonell Whitehead. Pat is survived by three wonderful children & one stepson. Pat, also known as PB, worked for PG& E for 32 years. Although she was an only child, it was during the early years of PG&E at the Oakland office where she

developed close friendships with a few of her coworkers who would later become her extended family. These friendships continued to develop over the years and were very dear to her. They had became the siblings she

didn’t have. Her extended family was always very important to Pat. While working at the Oakland call center she met Gary Bostick. They quickly became close friends and in no time were an item. While living in

Pittsburg he took a good liking to her children and he raised them and called them his own. They enjoyed life together until Gary fell ill and

departed this earth in 1998. Pat worked hard and took her job seriously. She participated in many activities while at PG&E that included bowling, softball and on occasions, a day at the races. She worked her way from an entry-level position to a management position by the time she retired in 2009 from the Sacramento office. Pat was very well received, she opened her home to many. Her hospitality was nothing short of the best, she made everyone feel welcomed and went the extra mile. Amongst many things she was known for a good party yearly that everyone attended from all over. She loved to entertain and enjoy time with friends and family both here and in the Bay Area, making lumpia, playing cards, dominoes,

watching her San Francisco 49ers and her tennis. After her illness, when she could no longer entertain at home, she loved going to Thunder Valley where she played the blackjack tables and poker machines. Pat’s children were very important to her and watching them succeed was all she ever wanted. She was very proud of how well all of her children are doing in life.
