I am married to Ray Patterson.  We have three children, Brandon, Brock, and Bronwyn.  We live in East Brewton and are members of the First Baptist Church of East Brewton.  I love spending time with my family, listening to music, watching movies, and reading.

My favorite book is Sullivan's Island by Dorothea Benton Frank and I also love anything written by Dr. Suess.
