Patricia A. Ryan

9/4/2020

Patricia Ryan, 45, passed on to be with our Lord on September 2, 2020, after a long illness. She passed peacefully with the accompaniment of loving prayers from her Church, family and many friends.

Patricia was born to Robert and Joyce Ryan on 2/22/75. Patricia was pre-deceased by her father, Robert Ryan in 2000. She is survived by her mother, Joyce Ryan-McCormack, her step- father, Fred McCormack and her two loving sisters, Kathleen Ryan and Kaitlyn McCormack, and aunts, uncles and cousins.  Kathleen was instrumental in leading Patricia in the development of her faith. Patricia was raised in Warwick prior to relocating to Queens, N.Y. to pursue her MSW degree, which she earned in 2012. Sadly, Patricia was never able to pursue her chosen career due to debilitating illness.

Patricia lived her life with vigor and determination, overcoming constantly evolving health challenges with bravery and a cheerful loving manner. Patricia enjoyed traveling, going to Spain, Italy, France, Ireland, Poland, and South America. Patricia loved animals, especially cats and cows. One of her life’s most special moments was being invited to milk a cow at the Penning’s Farm on Christmas day 2018. She especially enjoyed being invited back in the spring to meet the newborn calves. We owe a special debt of gratitude to Jack Penning for making this dream come true.

Patricia will be missed by all who knew her. She lived a life of  faith and faced obstacles with bravery and a zest for life. A Memorial Service will be held at the Highlands Bible Church, Vernon, N.J. on September 13, 2020 at 11 am. Due to COVID restrictions we ask that you plan to view the services remotely.  http://www.highlandsbiblechurch.org/resources/livestream/
