CABOT — Pat Boyett, 83, of Cabot,
went to be with his Heavenly Father Wednesday, July 22, 2020. He was born January 25, 1937, in Springhill, La., to the late Lacy and Julia Boyett. Pat was a graduate of Springhill High School. He loved his family with all his heart and cherished every moment he had with them. Pat was extremely proud of his children and grandchildren. He enjoyed gardening, always providing fruits of his garden to his children, family, and friends. He took pride in growing the best tomatoes, shelling peas and shucking corn in the summer season. Pat enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports. From the basketball court to the soccer fields he was his grandkids’ biggest fan. He proudly served as an active member at McArthur Assembly of God Church in Jacksonville, Ark. In addition, Pat was the one to find humor in everyday life. He gifted all his children and grandchildren with nicknames specific for them. Pat was always ready with a smile and a quick witted response. He had a way to make your day.
