She spent her career in the insurance industry, where she became Vice President of commercial underwriting for Swett and Crawford until her retirement in 2010.

Patricia had one daughter and was a dedicated and loving mother. She adored her three grandsons. She cherished her time with her family and cooking amazing Italian meals for them. She especially loved the time she spent with her family at the holidays.

She and Dewey loved to travel, and after her retirement they travelled throughout Europe. She loved to plan where they would go next.
