I made alot of memories with patricia from 2011 to 2012 even though i met her in 94..we hooked up later and shell never be forgotten..ive been looking for her ever since 2012..my deepest condolences to michael and family..her son was her ❤ and i hope he does well with his life and is gentle with himself.Pat was a deep feeling person inside and a one of a kind gal...a great personality and a great big smile ill never forget..she was ruled by her big emotions but only because she had such a big big heart.I love you girl Still...ill see you in heaven sweetheart...Lovingly Diamond.

When I was a little boy, I once told Aunt Tee Tee that I wanted a red corvette. She never forgot that and always asked me where my corvette was when we spoke. Her asking about it would always bring a smile to my face and it was our little thing. 

I love you and miss you Aunt Tee Tee. Your fun and cheerful spirit will live on in our hearts forever. xoxo



Trish was without a doubt a force to be reckoned with. When you knew Trisha, you knew it. Her presence was so real so there that you couldn’t help but see her. She was a girl who was always determined to do and be herself. It didn’t matter what was going on, she was always looking to do the right thing. 
She was not swayed easily. As a matter of fact, she was almost unmovable in her effort to do her thing. 
Her heart was as big as her presence, if you knew Trish you know she would be there to help, care for, while holding you to a line she didn’t think should be crossed. 
We will forever miss her until we’re reunited in heaven where she is with mom and dad. 
Trisha give mommy and daddy a big hug and kiss for us. 
I love you

Micheal & Family so sorry for the loss of your loved one.  Keep her sweet precious memories near and dear to your hearts.  Praying for your mom, Micheal , Family & Friends much love!


I am so grateful to have met Trisha at our wedding in 2016. It was wonderful to see all of Tony's family together. Trisha was so full of joy. She was a special person and she will be remembered with love.

My Darlin Tricia, I have so many wonderful happy memories of you. For instance  when we lived on 8th. Avenue we had a riding rocking horse in our living room. Tricia loved it, she would ride it with the biggest smile on her face.  Then my parents bought a house on 33rd. Street. Tricia would come over to see me about 9:a.m. with Michael and Stephanie.  My Grandmother lived on the second floor and we would bring the kids up to visit her. My Grandmother couldn't get over the way Stephanie would crouch down on the back of her heels and wrap her arms around her knees.  Thank You for that my Dear Tricia, you put a smile on my Grandmother's face.  Every time she saw my father she would nod her head in his direction and say...Uncle Frank you still going to those meetings? His response "Life Long Commitment Tricia Life Long Commitment"  Tricia Had A Smile That Could Melt The Coldest Of Hearts.  "Tricia... Heavens Newest Angel" love you always, Susan. Please Kiss Aunt Kay And Uncle Frank For Me❤️

One of my fondest memories is, as kids, we were playing together and for some reason I threw my toy fire engine at her and she started crying and screaming “MAAAAAAAA ——TONY TRIED TO KILL ME!!!” 
When my mom came in to see what happened, I said “She’s acting like she got hit by a truck!” My mother started cracking up laughing and I never got in trouble for it. 
I loved her more than I ever showed. 

My Memory of my cousin Patricia is her vibrant smile that lit up a room. Growing up with her, we were always together, when we lived on Henry street... through out the years we grew and all moved our separate ways but we will always have ties,we are family. Rest in eternal Peace Cousin you are home with Aunt Lillian,Uncle Tony in heaven.... Love and Prayers your cousin Eileen and family...

My thoughts of Trisha are filled with memories of her infectious smile, laughter and the ability to make make friends wherever she went.  I remember walking the avenue with her chatting away, I turned to look at her ..but she wasn't there..half a block behind me she had stopped to talk to someone or help someone and there I was walking and talking to myself.   She loved her family.   She had the greatest passion and the kindest soul, I will always remember her with a warm smile.  Sing with the angels Trisha and give your mom a kiss for me❤

So, so sorry to see you go. I remember how I used to let you drive my Eldorado Convertible when you were just 13 years old and I had a crush on you. I remember your big smile when you asked if you could drive and I would say "yes". What A chance we took not getting caught. I'll always remember that smile. I  became friends with your Mom and would talk to her for hours about how to win you over. I know you are at peace now and God will provide a special place for you in Heaven. God Bless You. All my love and prayers are with you now and forever.

Before you were Trish to me, you were Pat my best friend. We were inseparable. I loved your passion, your laughter, your sense of humor. You would say the funniest things and how we’d laugh. Sleepovers were the best except I had to put you to sleep by playing with your eye lashes. 
As sister in laws we had some good laughs about our first cigarettes, etc and we always felt that connection whenever we were together . I will always remember you and all we shared and will miss you and that smile. Now you are reunited with your Mom and Dad and in God’s loving arms. ❤️


My dearest Aunt, your absence is without a doubt, a heavy hit on everyone who loved you.

Anytime of my life that I got to spend with you was always comedy, laughter, love, and knowledge. 

You always showed that in life, you should never follow. You say what you feel and act how you want in order to make sure your happiness was put first.  No acts were ever put on to please anyone and I’m sure many others, including myself, envy that!  

I’m happy you’re now in peace, back in your mommy and daddy’s arms. You will live in each and every one of us until our last days. I love you and a hui hou, Aunt TeeTee. 

Love one of your only three nieces, 

Alexa 



Patricia, my only sister, memories of our childhood are engraved in my heart forever. 
Our pathways led us in different directions but our dreams and joys were always in the same place. You were the kindest human being to ever touch my life , my loss of you is immeasurable. Enjoy Mom & Dad. 
Until we meet again I promise to do the hustle in your honor. Good  Night and God Bless you, 
LiliAnn
