Patricia lived a long life and loved her family with the fullness of her heart. Her joy for life and her sense of humor will be missed by all. She had a wonderful Irish send-off surrounded by daughters and grandchildren. She slipped peacefully away to join her two sons Michael Desmond and Timothy James Coughlin, and husband Richard Desmond Coughlin.
She is survived by her daughters Bess Bloyer (Gerald Bloyer) of Rockford, IL, Susan Corso and Julia Gerber (Donald Gerber) both of Portland, OR, 13 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren.
A memorial Mass will be celebrated Monday July 28, 2014 time to be announced at St. Patrick's Church officiated by Father Jon Buffington.
Memorial contributions may be made in Patricia's name to St. Anthony Village Memory Care.
