Pat Hehn

George Patrick Hehn, "Pat", 82, of Fort Collins, died November 29th, 2018 in Wyoming.

Pat was born December 5, 1935 to parents Harry and Nora Michaud Hehn in Fort Morgan, Colorado. He was one of seven children. He attended St. Joseph Catholic School until 1951, then went on to high school, graduating from Wellington High School in 1954.

In 1955, after farming for a year after graduation, Pat joined the Navy Sea Bees. On April 4, 1959, Pat married Elaine Wombacher and the two began their almost 60-year marriage.

Pat was a workaholic all his life. After returning home from his service in 1958, he and his uncle started Michaud Electric. Later, in 1986, he and his brother Tom formed H & H Electrical. Even after retiring at 75, Pat continued to do work, volunteering at church.

Pat is survived by his wife, Elaine Wombacher Hehn; children, Diane Rothfuss (Kurt), Joe Hehn, and David Hehn; sister, Sister Ruth Ann Hehn SCL; sisters-in-law, Donna, Henrietta, and Shelly Hehn; 11 grandchildren; and 13 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his son, Mark Hehn; siblings, Charles, Sister Rosella Mary SCL, Father Bob, Tom, and John Hehn.

He was a loving man, conscientious in all he did. Pat brought joy to others, especially children, who were as fond of him as he was of them, always bringing a smile to the faces of his many grandchildren.
