Patricia Joan Heath

Patricia Joan Heath passed away on Easter Sunday, April 17, 2022 after a long battle with Parkinson's disease. She was born in Elgin, Illinois on September 15, 1941 and moved to Arizona in 1947 where she lived and worked in the Phoenix area until her passing.

Pat graduated from Sunnyslope High School in 1960. She loved making cakes and decorating them for anyone who would eat them and would have made one for her own funeral if she was able. She retired from Honeywell Aerospace Engineering after 35 years of dedicated service. Even more than her education, making cakes and her employment, Pat loved to serve her church and community and spent her entire adult life teaching and decorating for children’s church departments and giving all she could to her local church food pantry.

Patricia is survived by her daughter Georgie Cherry (Kurt) and two granddaughters Madison Cherry and Hannah Cherry (Jonathan) as well as her two brothers Mike Tutell (Rusty) and John Tutell (Merlyne), along with many wonderful nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her father, Francis Tutell, her mother, Georgie Edna (Riley) Tutell, two brothers, Frank and George Tutell and two sisters, Anne Tutell and Florence Saltsman.

A visitation for Patricia will be held Saturday, April 30, 2022 at 12:00 PM at West Resthaven Funeral Home (6450 W. Northern Ave, Glendale, AZ 85301) followed by a funeral service and burial at 1:00 PM.
