Patty was a special person. You could say she was my second Mother especially after my mother passed away 37 years ago on the very same day. They worked together at Geauga County Hospital in Ohio. Her sons and daughters were my best friends growing up, especially her son Robert. She will be greatly missed by all who knew here and is now in the Loving arms of our Lord and Savoir , Jesus Christ.
Patty was my step mom. She was a wonderful person had a big heart.Everyone loved her and will miss her very much….Now our Lord will have a beautiful and wonderful Angel …
As my mom’s best friend for 70 years, Patty was a part of our lives from the day we were born. We didn’t see her often, but she was in many conversations. Always so sweet and loving, she will be missed by many, especially my mom.
Patty was really good to me and my girls, we were treated like family from the day she met us. She will be missed greatly. She was a true woman of God. She never had a bad word for anyone. We love you Grandma!

Our families were bonded as neighbors many years ago. We grew up together in a humble little community a stones throw apart. My mom and Patty were \”besties\” from the word go. They were both strong women raising a brood of children that ran barefoot between the houses. If one did not have it the other did….be it bologna or peanut butter. We shared good times, bad times, hard times and the best times of our lives there side by side. Tear by tear and smile by smile we grew together as family.
When we last saw her, we laughed and we cried and hugged and we kissed, we talked and talked. We planned to meet again for a grand celebration. Until then, she ask that I tell my mother how thankful she was for the love and friendship they shared and what it meant to her.
How silly is that, to regret not thanking her for all she done that we carried on into our lives. She shared relentlessly and endlessly…..
THANK YOU, Aunt Patty for all the love and blessings, all the bread, milk, and sugar !!! Thank you for the empathy and sympathy, the band aids , referee skills and your words of wisdom and guidance. Most of all, thank you for the memories!!! As for the reunion……we will meet again for a grand celebration in our Fathers mansion and dance in the streets of gold !! xoxoxox
You will be dearly missed!
