Our beloved Patti passed peacefully on February 19, 2026. Born January 28, 1959, Patricia Marie Lambert was the daughter of Lillian Theresa Foley. She was the cherished wife of Gregg, mother to Molly, grandmother to Paige & MJ, sister, aunt and friend. Patti joined her daughter, Molly Ann; mother, Lillian; her sister, Molly Theresa and her loving in-laws, Marge and Speed Lambert who predeceased her but welcomed her warmly into Gods arms.
Survived by her loving husband, Gregory Lambert of 39 years; grandchildren, Paige Knapp (17) and Myron Brooks, Jr. (10) her siblings, Kelly (Michael) Reed, Brian (Alley) Gallagher, Steven (Debra) Gallagher as well as her sister and brother-in-law Jan & Steve Moddemeyer.
Patti was the light in any room she entered. She was a beautiful and kind friend which was evident in her long-standing friendships. Her life was filled with such joy watching her grandchildren grow alongside her husband Gregg. Next to their daughter Molly, they were the light of her life.
