Patty Dondanville, our beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully at the age of 73. Born in Pasadena, CA, in 1951, Patty lived a life full of love, kindness, and faith. She was the proud mother of three children—Kelly, Adam, and Karly. She cherished being a grandmother to Josiah, Noah, and Avery. Patty’s love for animals, her warm, caring nature, and her strong Christian faith were hallmarks of her life.
She will be deeply missed by her family, her many friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her kindness, compassion, and faith will continue to inspire all who remember her. She leaned heavily on her faith in Jesus, especially during her final months.
Jesus said: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” -Matthew 11:28-29
