Born and raised in Michigan City, Patricia was the beloved daughter of the late George Evart McGrath and Aileen (Doherty) McGrath and the cherished sister of the late Michael A. and Kevin B. McGrath.
She is lovingly remembered by her sister-in-law, Patricia Ann McGrath; nephews, Michael McGrath, Mark McGrath, and Jayson (Samantha Spiro) McGrath; niece, Robyn (Joel) Martin; and her treasured great-nephews, Jack Martin, Drew Martin, and Wyatt McGrath. Patricia also leaves behind dear friends, Amy McGrath and Susan Paul, whose lives she touched deeply.
Patricia graduated from St. Mary's High School in 1965 and earned her Bachelor of Science degree from Purdue University in 1979. She was a longtime member of Queen of All Saints Catholic Church, also attending masses at Notre Dame Catholic Church.
She dedicated her life to caring for others - whether through direct caregiving, preparing a warm meal, or simply listening with compassion. She was a steady presence, a trusted confidant, and a true friend to those who knew her best.
Her gentle spirit, kind heart, and quiet strength will remain forever in the hearts of her family and friends.
In Patricia's honor, contributions may be made to Dunes Hospice, 4711 Evans Ave., Valparaiso, Indiana 46383, or St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, Tennessee 38105.
