Mary Patricia “Pat” Hite O’Loughlin, age 91, went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, November 3, 2026 from her home in Thousand Oaks, California.

Pat was born in Morganfield, Kentucky on September 19, 1935 to her parents, Ewell Hite and Lilian Thompson Hite. She was the youngest of seven children. Pat worked at St. Joseph Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky where she attended classes and became a Registered Nurse.

She married James Lawrence “Larry” O’Loughlin on April 4, 1959 in Waverly, Kentucky at St. Peter’s Catholic Church. In 1966, she moved with her husband, two daughters and son, to southern California, eventually settling in Thousand Oaks.

She was a tremendous mother to her three children, taking care of them, hosting fun parties for them, and supporting them in the pursuit of hobbies, education, and athletics. She instilled a particular love for sports, especially tennis, in all of them.

She was an enthusiastic tennis player and golfer, playing with her many friends at Sunset Hills Country Club. She enjoyed traveling extensively all over the world with family and friends. Additionally, she was an avid bridge player and shared her card shuffling skills with her family.

She was a woman of faith, and set an example of spiritual and physical strength, especially later in her life. Her dry sense of humor was an enjoyable constant, along with her generous hospitality.

She had three granddaughters and was a large part of their lives. She cared for them often, taking them on adventures and teaching them to bake and cook.

The family extends their thanks and appreciation to the many doctors, nurses, and caregivers that provided support and care to Pat, particularly over the past 21 years. We are grateful for you.

Pat is survived by her husband, Larry, three children: Mary Beth Johnson, James O’Loughlin Jr., Suzanne Katz, and three granddaughters: Addison O’Loughlin, Leah Katz and Haley Katz.
