Treasurer/Secretary: Patricia McHugh
Pat was born and raised in the windy city Chicago, Illinois. After high school, she worked for a tax law publishing firm CCH, electronic manufacturing company Motorola and a manufacturer of high voltage electric equipment S&C Electric Company starting as a secretary and working her way up to supervisor of International Sales and managed to graduate from the Advanced Management Institute at Lake Forest College.
She is an avid Chicago sports fan and looks forward to going to the World Series in Chicago. She traveled a lot on business and pleasure and one of her favorite places was coming to Las Vegas for mini vacations since 1958 so when she took early retirement something told her to move out West. A friend told her to look at manufactured homes and her reply to them was she did not want to live in a trailer. "How wrong was I," Pat later decided.
After looking at several parks, she found the Mountain View Community in Henderson, Nevada and moved into this 55+ senior community in 1997 with her mother. Shortly thereafter most of her family moved to Las Vegas. Being a people person she enjoyed helping out with social activities and two years later volunteered as the social co-ordinator. She did that for over 15 years and during that course of time she got involved with her HOA and served for many years in the capacities over the years as secretary, treasurer and president.
In 1998 she joined her NAMH chapter and attended almost every State meeting as she was interested in what was happening in other parks. She is currently on the NAMH State Board and serves as membership chairperson. It's her hope that being on the NMHOA Board will give her a broader knowledge in helping people living in manufactured home parks.
