Patricia Gatlin Obituary

Patricia Audrey Sedei Gatlin April 30, 1941 – February 8, 2021 Patricia Gatlin left the physical earth on February 8, 2021 after a short battle with COVID-19. Patricia was fiercely independent, she had a laugh and sense of humor that were contagious and memorable, and she loved her family beyond words. Being the youngest of 16 children Patricia was a natural at knowing the importance of leaning on family. She also knew what love and loss was and handled both with grace and dignity. She is survived by three living children: Brian Gatlin, whom she adored and loved without abandon; Kelli Gatlin whom she loved and counted on for not just being a caregiver and also a true friend throughout her years; and Wendy Gatlin, whom she loved and adored. She is also survived by one loving granddaughter, Jayden Croney- Gatlin. Patricia loved animals and had a special relationship with every sweet critter that came her way. In lieu of flowers the family is asking that donations to be made in memory to one of Patricia’s favorite animal shelters, where she fell in love with Bazil, and gave him the best life a cat could ever want.

My dear little sister, Pat. You departed this world and, once again, are surrounded in the welcoming and loving arms of your Mom and fourteen older brothers and sisters who passed to this Land of Grace before you. You deserve to be there. Life on earth is so short. But, joyous Eternity is never ending. Your life here remains a legacy through your beautiful children and grandchild, as well as your many friendships. Your smiling face, kindness and welcoming demeanor leaves an indelible imprint on the memory of everyone who ever new you...especially me. Rest in peace little sister, and save a space for me. LOVE, Brother Frank and family.

I know of you through your youngest daughter, Kelli.
Please rest knowing that you raised one of the fiercest, most loyal, people I have ever met.
She fights for those who cannot fight for themselves, she is brave, and she is genuinely good. She touches people every day. You did a good job.
Your family is in our thoughts.

I well remember visiting Aunt Pat in the Johnstown area, summers and my preteen years. She would take me on the bus into downtown Johnstown for some shopping.
At times we would sit on the porch swing at grandmom’s house and play a game of identifying the cars that went by. (In those days the cars did not all look alike).
Lots of fun and lots of laughs with Aunt Pat.

I will always remember the fun times at our family barbecues at Libby’s. Pat was a fun loving and happy person. We will miss her and her laugh !

It’s truly the toughest day when you hear that your Mom is gone. Hard to wrap your head around. I’m nit sure how long it will take to fully grasp.
Each time I have a conversation with someone about my mother, I realize how much alike we were. From coffee consumption to music to an independent nature and more. I will forever find solace in knowing she lives in me and through me.
I’m so thankful for my brother and sister for the care and love they gave her throughout her life.
I know that while Mom and I didn’t see each other enough in the physical world, I will get more time with her now, as I know she is looking over all of us. Thank you, Mom, for your love.

There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to describe the pain and sorrow I am currently feeling.
My mom was a sweet and loyal person, especially when it came to her kids. Her laugh was catchy and had a unique view of the world at large.
One of my fondest memories of her is letting me and my sisters stay home from school if we stayed up and watched the movie “Grease” with her. Needless to say that movie has become one of my all time favorites.
There are far too many memories to list, but this was the first that popped in my head.
I will love her forever and will carry her memories with me for as long as I live. I’m grateful to have had her as my mom.
I hope to see her when it’s my time to go.

Though we only met a few times, my memories are sweet and funny. Thank you for the gift of creating one of my dearest friends - I’ll always be grateful and I’ll try to keep Kelli laughing when she thinks of you. Rest with peace and love.

I never met this lovely lady in person. I did get to know her simply by knowing her children over several years, and I can say for certainty that this beautiful woman raised 3 Spectacular humans who love her endlessly. Her children are fiercely honest, caring toward all walks of life and animals. They are great people who clearly share her phenomenal sense of wit, humor and laughter and share it with us all. What a beautiful imprint she leaves for those of us who know and love this family as they carry her Legacy in them ❤
