Patricia Clark Gräb

Patricia Clark Gräb entered her heavenly home on Thursday, October 31, 2024, at Forsyth Medical Center following a sudden illness. 

Pat was born on December 2, 1942, to the late Harold and Anna Clark in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. She graduated from Millersville University and did graduate work at Penn State. In June 1965, Pat married Wilson Gräb, and to that union were born three daughters – Karen, Kristen, and Julie. She worked as an elementary school teacher, pausing to raise her family, and eventually returning to the classroom as a Primary Reading Teacher. She retired from teaching upon the birth of her first grandchild. 

Pat was an active member of Calvary Baptist Church in Winston-Salem, NC, for almost 50 years, spending much of that time in music ministry. One of her favorite memories was the music mission trip to Russia. She also very much enjoyed spending time with her family, including her seven grandchildren and great-grandson.

In addition to her parents, Pat was preceded in death by her sister, Peggy; and her baby brother, Bill. She is survived by her loving husband, Wilson; her daughters, Karen (Dave) Strausser, Kristen (Kerry) Fulp and Julie (Alan) Casey; her grandchildren, Kathryn Fulp, Leo (Autumn) Fulp, Beka (Kason) Califf, Rachel (Andrew) Dominguez Luna, Ruthie Strausser (Cameron King), Matthew Casey and Michael Casey; one great-grandson, Lucas Califf; and her sweet dog, Toby.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00PM on Thursday, November 7, 2024, at Calvary Baptist Church with Pastor Will Toburen officiating. Burial will immediately follow the service at Forsyth Memorial Park. The family will receive friends the night prior, on Wednesday, November 6, 2024, from 6:00PM - 8:00PM at Hayworth-Miller Silas Creek Chapel. 

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Calvary Baptist Church Missions Fund, https://calvarynow.com/ministries/missions/, or to the Calvary Baptist Church Music Fund. 

The family wishes to thank the staff at Forsyth Medical Center, especially 9th North, 5th ICC, and ICU for the amazing care they gave our wife and mom during her final days.
