Patricia (Patricia Scheffel) from New Braunfels, TX
Marine
and
Patricia was born and raised in Central Texas, where she still resides. She has been
married
to her best friend for 21 years, and they have 3 boys and 3 dogs. Their oldest son
graduated
from MCRD in November 2023. He is currently at his MOS School on the East
Coast. When
she is not working at her full-time job or taking care of daily life with her family, she
enjoys
reading, camping, and traveling to new places.
Patricia would have been completely lost without the support and generous amounts
of
information provided through MarineParents.com and its Facebook groups. Having
her
oldest son say he wanted to be a Marine brought on a mixture of emotions. The day
he left
for boot camp was difficult for her and her family, to say the least. Patricia looked to
her
MarineParents Support Groups and information on MarineParents.com daily. This is
why she
wants to volunteer, to give back and help provide support and information to other
family
members going through the process of becoming a part of the Marine Corps Family.
It is not
easy, but the support groups make it so much more bearable.
