From The Winterset Stage: Pat Nelson was an ardent supporter of theater in Madison County right up until her passing in 2023. She was instrumental in the organization of the Apple Tree Players in the 1970s, and a staunch supporter of The Winterset Stage. She and her husband Jim have made an lasting impact on our community through their charity work and support of the arts, and it is our honor to present this program in Pat’s memory.
