Pat, as she liked to be called, passed away suddenly and unexpectedly at the age of 80, devastating her husband and children who loved her very much. She was preceded in death by her father, mother, and two older sisters. Surviving her are her husband Robert Lynn, son Kenneth, daughter Cheryl, grandchild Ashley, great-grandchildren Alyssa and Aubrey, and four cousins.
Pat grew up in the Pennsylvania coal region, where her grandfather built the home they lived in. After graduating from a Catholic high school, she moved to Philadelphia where she attended nursing school. She became a Registered Nurse and served in many departments, including the Intensive Care Unit. While in Philadelphia, she met her husband of 57 years, a student, and later a graduate with a Mechanical Engineering degree. Married, shortly after they met at ages 21 and 22, it did not take long to start a family. Pat lived a fulfilling life touring around the USA and visiting many countries with her husband, and on occasion, with her children. In recent years, she took up knitting, pencil painting, crossword puzzles, and pleasure reading. With her notebook connected to the internet, she continued her endless pursuit of medical knowledge. To some family and friends, she was Doctor Pat. With the isolation of Covid-19, she would play board games with her husband every night after dinner. Pat was a care giver her whole life, to patients, family and friends. There are no words that can express how truly missed she will be by all those who knew and loved her. God bless her. May she rest in peace.
