Patricia J. "Patty"  Befus (Lang)
Patty Befus of Hygiene, Colorado died in Longmont, Colorado on January 20, 2018 at the age of 84. Patty graduated from Mead High School in 1951. She was a stay-at-home mom to three children.

When the kids were grown, she did bookkeeping for Herdman Electric and a Credit Bureau in Longmont. She also kept books for her husband, who built 150 homes in Longmont.
She is survived by children, Paul (Colleen) Befus, Jerry Befus and Donna Bruce; her brother, Buddy and sister-in-law, Fern Lang, Her sisters-in-law, Ruby Butler, Kathy Befus and Alice Befus; many grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Reuben, mother, Bonnie Ruth Lang and father, Joseph Patrick Lang.
