Patricia Vargas Obituary

Patricia Ann Vargas
On July 29th, 1954 a sparkling diamond was delivered into this world by Molly Echavarria. Patricia Ann Vargas laughed her way through life becoming the anchor and glue for those who loved her. On December 7th, 2010 at age 56 her sparkle faded. She will be greatly missed by those she influenced with her kindness and warmth. She provided guidance and relief and left an everlasting impression on those that she left behind; her loving devoted husband Manuel C. Vargas, her two children Katherine L. Vargas and M. Ryan Vargas, her mother Molly Echavarria and her brother Daniel Echavarria.
Visitation will be held Sunday, December 12, 2010 from 3:00 to 7:00 pm at Dudley-Hoffman Mortuary. The Rosary will be held Sunday at 5:00 pm and the Scripture Service will be held Monday, December 13, 2010 at 9:30 am, both at the chapel of the Dudley-Hoffman Mortuary. Burial will follow at Santa Maria Cemetery.
Arrangements are under the direction of Dudley-Hoffman Mortuary, Crematory and Memory Gardens.

Pat was a true friend and I was lucky to have worked with her for 8 years at the Cal Poly Health Center. I admired the way she and Manual were always on the go, she was thoughtful in always remembering my granddaughter and grandson and would bring things back from Mexico for them. She loved hearing about their antics. She was so very close to her family and will be missed by all that knew her. May the memories she left us with, comfort and hold you until you meet again. Rest in peace my friend.
