Greendale, WI - Found peace Tuesday, November 28, 2023. Patricia was born in Oneonta, NY and spent her early years in Westfield, MA. She attended Marquette University (class of 75). There she met her husband of 45 years. She had a rich, varied career as caregiver for 23 years for her father in law and mother in law, created Harvest Graphics, worked as a graphic designer for ACTA publications in Chicago, IL. She delighted in dance and was a generous teacher. In her compassionate care for her family, she was truly a person of the Beatitudes. She opened her home to offer hospitality for those in need and for just pure joy.

Patricia battled brain cancer for almost 2 years. Special thank you to the entire staff at the Lutheran Home Wauwatosa for their compassionate care, especially the various Certified Nursing Assistants, LPN’s, RN’s, Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapists on the 4th floor Rehab unit. They all did their very best to help Patricia to recover and maintain her functional abilities. Thanks also to Drs.
