Patricia Warfield Obituary

Patricia Catherine Warfield, 83, of 83 Crookerhouse Lane, passed away Friday (July 11, 2025) at Bradford Manor with her family by her side, after multiple battles with cancer.
Born Jan. 11, 1942, in Niagara Falls, N.Y., she was a daughter of the late George H. and Marjorie Harrick Mann.
Pat was a 1960 graduate of Haverling High School in Bath, N.Y. After graduation she attended Geneseo College, graduating in 1964 with a degree in elementary education.
Due to her father's employment with Corning Glass, the family moved to Bradford, so upon completion of her teaching degree, Pat opted to move to Bradford to be with her family. She was hired immediately by Bradford Area School District as an elementary education teacher where she taught for the next 32 years, retiring in 1995. Pat taught every grade in the elementary level other than kindergarten and sixth grade; third grade was her favorite.
Pat met the love of her life, Howard J. Warfield, and they were married Oct. 13, 1973, in Bradford.
She enjoyed visiting her family and playing a few hands of any card game she could talk them into.
Pat was a member of the Episcopal Church of the Ascension for over 50 years and taught Sunday school for over 30 years, Vestry where she held positions as Junior Warden, Senior Warden, Treasurer, and Secretary. She was the longest local member of Delta Kappa Gamma. She was a 32-year social member of the Bradford Township Volunteer Fire Department, where she gladly supported the department in any capacity needed. She worked countless bingos, taught fire prevention to local students and assisted with banquets and meal preparations whenever needed.
Surviving are one daughter, Christine (Hiel "Butch") Bartlett; two stepdaughters, Linda Warfield Hastings of Orlando, Fla., and Lisa Warfield of Bradford; one sister, Marcia Mann of Little Silver, N.J.; six step-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Howard, of 32 years; one sister, Joan McCauley; and two brothers, Larry Mann and Michael Mann.
Family will receive friends from 10 to 11 a.m. Wednesday (July 16, 2025) at Church of the Ascension, where funeral services will follow with the Rev. Stacey Fussell, rector, officiating. Burial will be in Willow Dale Cemetery.
Memorial contributions, if desired, may be made to the Bradford Township Volunteer Fire Department, the Church of the Ascension or a charity of the donor's choice.
