Patricia A. Bartkowiak-

Age 73, passed away peacefully on September 25, 2025, after a courageous fight with cancer, surrounded by her loving family.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Gregory Bartkowiak; her parents, Peter and Lucille Panasuk; and her brother, Robert Panasuk.

Patricia was the devoted mother of Brian (Nicole) Bartkowiak and Patrick (Alison) Bartkowiak; and the dear sister of Diane (Robert) Santi, James (June) Panasuk, and John Panasuk. She is also lovingly remembered by her sister-in-law, Joanne Panasuk. Patricia was a proud grandmother of seven and is further survived by other cherished relatives and many dear friends.

Patricia had a lifelong passion for gardening and was well known for her remarkable green thumb. When she wasn’t tending to her plants, she found great joy in her kitchen, where she loved cooking and baking for family and friends. A dedicated member of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, Patricia faithfully served her parish community and proudly coordinated the Friday Fish Fry for many years.

Patricia’s family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate staff of Aurora At Home Hospice Care for their exceptional kindness and support.

Patricia will be remembered for her warmth, generosity, and the love she shared with all who knew her.
