Patricia and David Stone Obituary
Patricia Ann (Coneita) Stone, age 86, passed away on December 9, 2025. Her beloved husband, David Joseph Stone, age 85, passed away peacefully on December 11, 2025, just two days later. Their passing so close together reflects the deep and enduring love they shared.
Patti and David grew up in Bristol and knew one another from childhood. David often said he loved Patti from kindergarten. Though life eventually led them on separate paths, they were reunited more than 50 years later at their high school class reunion. From that moment on, they were inseparable. They soon married and made their home together in Lecanto, Florida. After several moves between Connecticut and the South, they ultimately planted roots in their newly built home in Harwinton, where they had lived for just under a year before their passing.
Patti was the love of David's life, and he devoted himself to her care with tenderness and unwavering loyalty. Together, they truly lived the vows they made-to love one another in sickness and in health. Their bond was one of deep companionship.
A private service will be held. The family respectfully extends their sincere gratitude to all who share kind thoughts, prayers, and well wishes during this difficult time. Donations may be made to Harwinton Ambulance Association, mailing address 166 Burlington Road, Harwinton, CT 06791.
