She was truly blessed in the currency of family who adored her, including numerous nieces and nephews, extended family and friends.
Patricia loved all types of crafts and social activities, knitting blankets and cloths, painting ceramics, and collecting her dolls were a few of her most memorable hobbies. She enjoyed hosting family gatherings and taking the grandchildren on vacations. Babysitting not just her own grandchildren, but growing the family of her heart with those she kept. Patricia spent many years serving others until her health prevented from continuing. She was a Breast Cancer survivor and a woman to admire as she battled it with dignity and humor. Patricia enjoyed playing Bingo and serving on social committees, always enjoying helping others, and having someone to talk to or gossip with. She found true joy in talking with her loved ones.
In her final years, she enjoyed traveling between her sons’ homes and sharing her heart with each of them. Whether just a weekend or a month, she found such happiness in being in their homes surrounded by them and their families. She always said “I’m just so happy’”.
She was the most loving and caring woman, a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and friend, always thinking of others first.
“To know her was to love her.”
