Mary Patsy was born on December 19, 1937, in Brooklyn, New York, to Elizabeth and John Preitz. She was the beloved sister of Elizabeth Joan and Leanora Anne, both of whom preceded her in death.
Mary Patsy worked as a librarian at Bishop Ford High School and faithfully served as a Eucharistic Minister at Holy Name of Jesus Parish. She found joy in NASCAR, football, good food, reading, and, most of all, spending cherished time with her family.
In 1960, Mary Patsy married her high school sweetheart, the late Joseph Carl Stasiak. Together, they built a family that remained at the heart of her life.
She is lovingly survived by her three sons: John Stasiak and his wife, Phyllis, and their children, John Peter and Matthew; Joseph Stasiak and his wife, Carrie, and their children, Michael (Elliott), Christopher, and Justin; and Stephen Stasiak and his wife, Domenica, and their son, Joseph James.
Mary Patsy will be remembered for her devotion to her family, her faith, and the many simple pleasures that brought happiness to her life. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
