Patricia Ann (Dolan) Adolph, 86, of Columbiaville, Michigan, passed away on March 7, 2026, at 7:30 p.m. Born May 13, 1939, Patricia will be remembered as a happy, kind, and caring woman who consistently put others first and brought warmth and laughter to those around her.
Patricia married the love of her life, Lawrence, on April 17, 1959. Together they shared 67 wonderful years, building a life centered on the home and family Patricia had always dreamed of. She was a devoted wife and a wonderful mother of four, grandmother of five, and great-grandmother of seven. Her family was her pride and joy. She also dearly loved her three dogs, Molly, Cocoa, and Daisy, and took special pride in one of her favorite accomplishments—training her dog to use the bathroom on command.
Known for her genuine care for others, Patricia stayed closely connected to those she loved, often calling family to keep up with their day-to-day lives. She had a gift for making people laugh and lifting spirits with her presence. In her quiet moments, she enjoyed watching Dr. Phil and home improvement shows, working on puzzles and artwork, riding the golf cart around her property, feeding the wildlife in her yard, playing card and board games, and shopping in Otisville where she was well known and loved.
Patricia is survived by her beloved husband, Lawrence Adolph Sr.; her children, Lawrence Adolph Jr., Kimberly (Steve) Morgan, Tamara (Archie Lily) Adolph, and Norman (Chris) Adolph; her grandchildren, Morgan (Andy) Rosebush, Wilfred Alvord, Steve (Erica) Glasco, Amanda Adolph, Jon (Haleigh) Adolph, and Samantha Lily; and her great-grandchildren, Madeline Rosebush, Ryker Rosebush, Brock Alvord, Stella Alvord, Caitlin Show, Tyler Glasco, and Finnley Adolph.
Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, Steven Dolan Sr. and Joyce Dolan; her twin brother, Steven Dolan Jr.; and her sister, Beverly Ewles.
Patricia was always a happy and kind soul, and she will be missed dearly.
