Saturday, November 09, 2024
On October 25, 2024 at the age of 94, Patricia passed peacefully at Elmwood Hills in Gloucester Township. (nee Unger). Loving mother of Donna P. Marthins (Randy), Joel F. Piccone (Kelly) and Mark E. Piccone (Kimberly). Cherished grandmother of Ryan Piccone (Bridget), Kira McDonald (Donovan) Zach Piccone, Mariel Marthins, Evan Piccone and Sophia Piccone. Pat was predeceased by her parents, Joseph and Patricia Unger and her brother, Vincent Unger (late Margaret).
Patrica was born in New York, New York and lived in Southern California for 20 years. She was a parishioner of St. Simon Stock Parish in Berlin, NJ.
Patricia had an appetite for adventure as we would witness in her witty and never-ending storytelling. Patricia was always happy to use her voice to paint fascinating details of her life with equally interesting anecdotes. Patricia spent much of her free time in charge of Chula Vista’s Writers panel, where she met her cherished friend, Victoria Holley who shared her love of writing as well. When we think of Patricia, we picture a one-of-a-kind woman with a huge smile ready to fondly greet her friends and family. She loved to sing, and chose to sing only the songs which would embarrass her kids forever. She loved Broadway musicals, and her favorite was West Side Story where her city of New York was its own character. Her legacy lives on through her kaleidoscope of characters, and cavalcade of wonderous tales which only she could curate. We will miss her chats, her pastiches of wisdom, but most of all we will miss seeing her and experiencing her contagious zest for life, and exceptional sense of humor.
Relatives and friends are invited to her visitation on Saturday, November 16th from 10 to 11 AM at St. Simon Stock Parish, 178 W White Horse Pike, Berlin, NJ 08009, where her Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11 AM. Interment will be private.
