Chianne Laquisha Patterson

Chianne Laquisha Patterson, our beloved daughter, granddaughter, and mother, passed away peacefully on January 28, 2024, at the age of 28, and has gone home to heaven. Born in Bryn Mawr, PA, on November 29, 1995, Chianne was the daughter of Charmaine E. (Thompson) Patterson and Leroy M. Patterson.
Chianne graduated from Norristown Area High School and recently enrolled at Montgomery County Community College. She was deeply drawn to pursue a career in Human Services, fueled by her profound passion for supporting and counseling individuals facing various challenges. She was dedicated to helping others and had been working at Creative Health Services in Pottstown for the last three months. Although Chianne never had the chance to visit Jamaica, she took immense pride in her Jamaican heritage. She affectionately referred to herself as a "Jamerican" and delighted in playfully adopting a Jamaican accent, sharing her love for the culture with her family and friends. Chianne's heart overflowed with kindness and generosity, always ready to assist those who needed it. She had a one-of-a-kind sense of humor that brought smiles and laughter to those fortunate enough to share in her company. Chianne held a deep and unwavering love for her family, particularly her three beloved children, with whom she shared an unbreakable bond. Her connection with her son, Karson, was truly special, and she was proud to be a "basketball mom," enthusiastically running the scoreboard at his basketball games. In the last two years, Chianne found the greatest happiness, reminding us all that it's not where you start that's important, but where you finish.
Chianne is lovingly remembered by her mother, Charmaine Patterson; her father, Leroy Patterson; her children, Karson Sumner, Gabrielle Sumner, and Giuliana Sumner; her maternal grandparents, Vevica and Vincent McKoy Sr.; her paternal grandparents, Mary McFarlane Deacon and Eton Deacon; her aunts, Jacqueline McKoy and Nicole McKoy; her uncles, Dwayne McKoy, Dean Patterson, and Vincent McKoy Jr.; her cousins, Preston Carr, Amaiah Carr, and Natay Winters; and extended family, Sheril Locke, her godmother, and Marie James, her "bonus aunt." In addition to her immediate family, Chianne is survived by numerous extended family members, close friends, and colleagues who were deeply touched by her warm spirit, and they too will miss her greatly.
