A resident of Hopkinton since 1960, Patricia was educated in Hopkinton schools and went on to become a licensed hair dresser and manicurist. She worked part time at her profession all the while working as a homemaker and as the office manager for Browne Drilling and Blasting Co. of Hopkinton.

Patty was a talented artist being proficient in weaving afghans and quilts, working with stained glass, painting and wood carving, many items of which she gave to friends and family.

Always thinking of others before herself, she was a gifted homemaker, who acted as a hostess during many holidays and celebrations at her homestead. She loved to cook and always tried to make the holidays special times for her family, especially decorating for Christmas.

She liked traveling the White Mountains and spent fun times skiing with family and friends in the Mount Washington Valley. An avid golfer, she played many courses throughout New England and scored two holes-in-one during her playing time. Many a round of golf with her husband was followed up by getting together with friends at the celebrated Scarecrow Pub & Grill.
