Patricia Bob Robertson Hagood was born February 27, 1938, in Freer, Texas, to Cecil and Neva (Wood)
Robertson. She met Jesus face to face on January 15, 2024, in Stephenville, Texas. Pat graduated from
Gorman High School in 1956 and married her high school sweetheart Howard Hagood on May 19, 1956.
They lived in Freeport, Texas, for many years and raised their family there. Pat happily served her family
in the home, later becoming a beautician. The family relocated back to Gorman where she worked as a
pharmaceutical assistant for many years.
Pat was active in the church, and she served the community through the Homecoming/Alumni
Association and supported Gorman students' athletic and academic scholarship endeavors. She loved
Gorman and her passion was helping others, and she was known for sharing her love of cooking with
others. Pat and Howard desired to be the hands and feet of Jesus and loved serving together wherever they
were needed. Pat loved her husband, her children, her grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She loved
supporting “her babies” in their academics, their athletics, and their passions; but most importantly, she
loved sharing Jesus with them.
Pat is preceded in death by her husband, her parents, and a sister, Mozelle Boucher. She leaves behind a
family legacy of love and sweet memories: two sons - Bill Hagood (Kathy) and Bob Hagood (Debbie);
two daughters - Donna Lewis (Philip) and Ruthie Quam (Alan); ten grandchildren - William Hagood,
Jessie Hagood, Brandon Powell, Robert Lewis, Sarah Jackson, Emily Ward, Maggie Richardson, Ryan
Hagood, Britt Hagood, and Garrett Hagood; twelve great-grandchildren, one great great-grandchild, and
many nieces and nephews; one brother, Cecil Robertson; three sisters, Frances Warren, Nelda Mauney,
and Mary Jeffs. Pat’s grandsons will serve as pallbearers.
A memorial service will be held at 2:00 pm Saturday, January 20, at Higginbotham Funeral Home Chapel
