It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Patricia Ann McClafferty, who left us on December 8, 2023. Patricia, a vibrant and feisty soul, was born on December 26, 1947, and lived her life with a passion that was deeply felt by those around her.
Patricia was a force of nature, always speaking her mind and standing for what she believed in. Her outspokenness and zeal for life made her a beacon of strength for those who had the pleasure of knowing her. She touched the lives of many with her courage and tenacity, leaving a vibrant legacy behind.
One of Patricia's most cherished pastimes was tending to her plants. Her love for plants was evident in the blossoming flowers that surrounded her home, a testament to her nurturing spirit and the flourishing life she led. Her plants were her peaceful sanctuary, mirroring Patricia's inner beauty and her respect for nature.  Patricia was also a hairdresser at Keeley's Beauty Salon.
Patricia is survived by her loving husband, Michael McClafferty. Their bond was one of deep love and companionship, a testament to a life spent in unison. Patricia's departure has left an immeasurable void in Michael's life - a void that only Patricia's vibrant spirit could fill. However, her memories and the love they shared will continue to live on. Patricia is also survived by her two sons, Mike and Shawn along with their spouses, Jessica and Sandy as well as her grandchildren Kaitlyn, Alaina, and Liliana.
In place of flowers, Patricia wished for all to cherish the beauty of nature, just as she had done throughout her life. As we mourn her passing, let us celebrate the life of a woman whose strength and love will continue to inspire and guide us.
