Mary Patricia Grennan

Mary Patricia “Pat” Grennan, 93, passed away peacefully Monday morning July 18, 2011, surrounded by her family and the caring staff of Roberts Health Centre and Odyssey Hospice. Her sparkling eyes, lovely sense of humor, and compassion brightened the lives of all those who were lucky enough to know her.

Pat was a resident of North Kingstown for over 60 years and was a true New England sports fan who enjoyed watching the Patriots, the Bruins and especially, the Boston Red Sox. She also loved reading, fishing, and traveling with her family and was proud to say that she visited all 48 contiguous states by car. She was a member of The 1918 Club.

She was the beloved wife of the late Dr. Thomas J. Grennan, Jr.; daughter of the late Loretta F. (MacAuley) and John A. MacIsaac; and sister of the late Hugh MacIsaac.

She is survived by her three children, Thomas J. and his wife Ellen of North Kingstown, Nancy E. (Grennan) Hillner of Hope Valley and Stephen E. and his wife Janet of Exeter. Pat was the loving ‘Grammy’ of Michael Grennan and his wife Holly of Warwick, Kelly (Grennan) Smith and her husband Rip of Jamestown, Adam Grennan of West Chazy, NY, Amy Hillner of Los Angeles, CA, and Matthew Grennan of South Kingstown, as well as the Great-Grammy of Gage Spencer Grennan.

Relatives and friends are invited to attend her Visitation Friday, July 22, 2011 from 9:00-10:30am in the FAGAN-QUINN Funeral Home, 825 Boston Neck Road, North Kingstown, with a Mass of Christian Burial at 11am in St. Bernard Church, 275 Tower Hill Road, North Kingstown.  Burial will be in RI Veterans Memorial Cemetery, Exeter.
