Patricia Darling

August 5, 1936 - July 19, 2025

Patricia Kay Darling, 88, passed away unexpectedly on July 19, 2025, to be reunited in eternal life with family, friends and her beloved hounds who went before her. She independently established herself as a successful business owner of All Breed Grooming and was an honorary member of the Greater Racine Kennel Club, with her affiliation going back to 1961. Patricia was a regular at the local Razor Sharp Fitness and enjoyed the friendship of the ladies in the pool.

In accordance with Patricia's wishes, private services were held, and she will be laid to rest at Graceland Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials in Patricia's honor may be directed to the Greater Racine Kennel Club, c/o 1004 Lombard Avenue, Racine, WI 53402, or to STOLA - Saluki Tree of Life Alliance, Inc., at https://stola.org/support/index.html.

I will miss Pat´s friendly smile at the pool. She was such a thoughtful, generous person, bringing vegetables and fruit from her garden to share, even when you could tell, that she was in pain. Alice Peterson

Pat was a neat lady. We had a lot of fun in the pool at RS. Every time she came into the pool she would need her swimsuit pulled up in the back. That was my job to do. She would always give this big AHHH out because her shoulders felt much better. We enjoyed her stories about all of her beloved dogs and how much she missed them as they passed on. We will all miss her at the pool. May she be reunited with all of her pooches who have gone before her.
