Patricia M. Perlinger

1942 - 2025

Patricia M. Perlinger, 83, of Renfrew, went gracefully to be with her Lord and Savior Sunday, Oct. 12, 2025, in the comfort of her home after a 26-year battle with cancer, with her daughters by her side.
Born April 30, 1942, in Pittsburgh, she was the daughter of the late Raymond and Patricia (Stetter) Murray.
Patricia was a faithful member of St. Conrad's and a strong woman of faith. She was a registered nurse for 35 years, until she retired and spent her days baking and eating her favorite sweets. A snowbird at heart, she loved to travel and go to the beach with her daughters and her late husband, Jack, whom she married on July 15, 1977. They were married until his passing. You could find them working around the house together in perfect harmony, well under the guidance of Patricia, aka "The Warden." Perfect Patty was the epitome of a 1950s housewife.
She leaves behind to cherish her memory, her daughters, Maureen (Stephen) Whitfield and Tricia Walsh; her son, Gary (Tanya) Walsh; brother, Bobby (Shirley) Murray; sisters, Donna (Ron) Mega, Chris (Russ) Felix, Nancy (Keith) Loughrey, Maureen Murray and Julie (Jeff) Hartin; and two grandchildren, Caitlin and Colin Whitfield; along with many nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents and husband, Patricia was preceded in death by her sisters, Sally Keplinger and Kathy Peluso; and her brother, Tommy Murray.
