Patricia Gibson Obituary

Gibson, Patricia (nee Sigmund), - 68, of Egg Harbor Township, died at Shore Memorial Hospital on July 1, 2022 with her loving family by her side. She was born in Atlantic City to Jack and Louise (Kent) Sigmund. Pat grew up in Brigantine. After graduation from Atlantic City High School, she married and moved to Egg Harbor Township. Pat was a special education teacher in Egg Harbor Township for over 20 years. She began her interest in teaching by driving the Book Mobile for children who didn't have access to a school library. She retired in June. Pat loved working at Fernwood Avenue Middle School. Wheelchair bound for the past 15 years, Pat connected with her students on a deep level and inspired many along the way. Her desire to teach Special Education came from her brother, Kenneth Sigmund, who had Down's Syndrome and lived with her most of his life until his death in 2017. Surviving is her husband of 50 years, Edward; children, Becky Gonzalez (Al), Glenn Gibson (Kelsie), Jon Gibson (Tia); sister Irene Sigmund Parker; grandchildren Gabbie, Blake, Dylan, and Jenna who she made sure lived their best lives; nephew Michael Sigmund Sr and grand-nephew Mikey Sigmund Jr. She leaves behind many lifelong friends too numerous to mention. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Cape May County Zoo. A life celebration will be announced. Arrangements by George H. Wimberg Funeral Home, Linwood - Ventnor. Condolences may be extended to the family at ghwimberg.com.

I was so sad to hear of the passing of Mrs. Gibson I had just ran into he not too long ago at Wawa. We worked in the same district and my son and daughter had a very good relationship with her when they attended Fernwood Middle School. Kalil and Layla were very sad to hear of her passing as well. Kalil had run into her too at Wawa and they caught up and he helped her order food on the touch screen. He was so happy to see her. Prayers to all her students, co-workers family and friends.

Deepest sympathy to Pat's beloved family. Pat had a beautiful heart driven ability to recognize a child's short coming and tended to it appropriately. She endlessly complimented me and every one of my efforts, as a new district employee. We shared stories of our own children, and she taught me a lot on how to accept the challenges they presented. I will miss her deeply and wish peace to her family, knowing what a beautiful imprint she has left on me.

The world has lost a kind, loving, and unique person. I taught with Pat at Fernwood and she was one caring person.
May she Rest In Peace. To her family: Pat loved you so much, and she was so proud of all. May you have happy memories of her.
