Toni "Pat" Flygare Obituary (1938 - 2021)

Donate and Give Gifts Pat Flygare, 83, passed away Thursday, August 12, 2021 at her home in Salem. She was born on May 14, 1938 in Mapleton, to Lewis and Mary Canto Bleggi. She was raised in Mapleton learning how to work hard and the importance of family. Pat found her true love and married Howard J. Flygare on January 2, 1958. They enjoyed 58 years of marriage with their five beautiful daughters before Howard passed away in 2016. We are so grateful to know they are together again. Pat loved staying busy as a stay at home mom raising her girls. As they got older, she continued providing her talents in different capacities. She spent 20 years working for Nebo School district as a lunch lady and then lunch secretary at Rees Elementary. In addition, she volunteered as the PTA President at Salem Elementary and was on the Nebo School District PTA board. She loved working with the kids and helping make the school a better place. Pat was technically not a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, however, she held many callings in the church throughout the years. She was involved in the relief society, primary and the young women's sports program. She also loved visiting teaching. The friendships she formed with neighbors was priceless. Most of all, Pat loved her family and would do anything to have them all together throughout the year. She was always ready to go, no matter what it was, just as long as she could be with family. She would do anything for her 8 grandkids and 16 (+1 on the way) great grandkids. Two of her favorite times of year are Christmas and Easter with the large family gatherings. She will be dearly missed by all. Pat is survived by her daughters; Anna (Doug) Pearson, Salem, Julie (Wayne) Elder, Springville, Machele (LeeRay) Argyle, Salem, Kelly (Ty) Tingey, Salem, and Kim (Bruce) Lewis, Salem. She was preceded in death by her husband, grandson, great grandson, and her parents. There will be a graveside service Monday, August 16, 2021 at Salem Cemetery at 11:30. Family and friends, please join us to celebrate Pat's life. Dress is casual (as she would want) and please bring a chair for comfort.
