Patricia Ayers Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Donza Funeral Home Inc on Jan. 16, 2026.
On January 14, 2026, at 11:38 am our Aunt Pat passed away under hospice care at Good Samaritan Hospital, West Islip, New York. Aunt Pat was married in the mid 1950's to Eddie Ayers until his untimely passing in 1977. She was a lovely woman that worked over 42 years for American Airlines retiring in 1995, still traveling all over the world with her coworkers. Aunt Pat as we all called her, was a fun loving and pretty sweet soul that was always there for her family and friends. She was in her 94th year around the sun enjoying the Food Network and Channel 7 every morning. Aunt Pat really loved going to NYC not only for work but shopping at the finest stores, enjoying Broadway, partaking with family and friends at some of the best upscale restaurants and Irish pubs. She never used a computer but she still used the Atlantic Bell Rotary telephone that hangs on her kitchen wall. Our yearly Trips to Stow Vermont starting in 2003 including her sister Judith, her niece Susan and her husband Vincent were something we all looked forward to. Every August she would drive to Brick, NJ to spend one week with her coworker Rose until she could not make the drive anymore, so we took over driving duties to allow her to arrive safely. Aunt Pat never spent one minute in a hospital until July 2025 in her 93rd year. Her fun loving nature will be missed by all.

I am sending my condolences to Pat´s family. I loved working with Par at American Airlines. She was so much fun and always made me laugh. She had a kind word for everyone. Most of all, I loved our special time with her, and Joann Camuti, up at Lake George, Saratoga Springs, NY, and Manchester, Vermont. What great memories. She will be missed.
