Obituary
Patricia E. "Pat" Buchholz, 79, of Ladysmith passed away following a short illness on Thursday, April 14, 2016 at Sacred Heart Hospital in Eau Claire. She was born on October 10, 1936 in Ladysmith to Audie & Mary (Lundgren) Christianson. Pat married Robert J. "Bob" Buchholz on June 7, 1958 at Hope Lutheran Church in Ladysmith.
Pat grew up on a farm in the Blue Hills as the youngest of 10 children. She and her parents moved from the Blue Hills to Ladysmith when she was in middle school. Pat graduated from Ladysmith High School and then from UW-Stout with a teaching degree. She taught home economics in the Wausau, Hawkins and Ladysmith School Districts for nearly 30 years.
