Patricia A. Lucito

Patricia ‘Nana’ Lucito, born April 15, 1937 in Kansas City, Missouri, passed away at the age of 86, on October 04, 2023 surrounded by loved ones. After a long battle with dementia and a faulty heart, it was a recent fall resulting in a broken hip that lead to her passing.

Patricia loved spending time in the kitchen creating delicious meals for her family, especially during the holiday seasons. When her girls were young she cherished times she spent as their Girl Scout leader. Nana was an avid shopper who loved shopping for her grandchildren. Other times you could find her in her backyard tending to her beautiful flowers.

She is survived by daughter Sharon and husband Randy Kassen, daughter Linda and husband Joe Thompson, son John Lucito and wife Missy, grandchildren Greg and wife Aimee, Todd, Andrea and wife Stacey, Shawn, Ryan and wife Kelly, Chris, Kyle and wife Amanda, Aaron, Joey, and great grandchildren Braxtyn, Ian, Drew, Jaecee, Aubreanna, Sidney, Elizabeth, and Jaxon.
