In loving memory of Patricia Fitzgerald Dymarcik, who passed away at the age of 82 on December 16, 2023. She was a cherished sister, life partner, devoted mother, and beloved grandmother, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew her. Born on August 6, 1941, Patty spent her life spreading love, kindness, and her own special wisdom.

Her nurturing spirit and unwavering support were the pillars of our family. She dedicated herself to creating a warm and loving home, where laughter and shared moments became the fabric of our lives. Patty was not only a source of strength but also a beacon of compassion to friends and strays to whom she opened her door, her heart and built an extended family with. An avid gardener, she found joy in arts and crafts, and her enthusiasm for singing in the church choir was as beautiful as the voice that rang out.

Patty is survived by her sister Lynne, her daughter Alexandra and son in law Jim, granddaughter Ayla, and grandson David. Though her son David and husband Dave have passed, their memories will forever be treasured by those who knew them.

In the later chapters of her life, Patty discovered a deep and meaningful companionship with Garry Doering, a remarkable person who touched Patty's life with his kindness and warmth as her devoted life partner. Together, they shared joy, happiness, and especially laughter, forging an enduring love. Patty's spirit shall live on in the hearts of those she leaves behind, and that her love for Garry be a comfort to him, a person to whom she so dearly treasured.

Although she is no longer with us, her love, and the enduring bond she fostered, will continue to resonate.

A memorial service to celebrate Patty's life will be held on December 23, 2023 at 10 a.m. at the Church of The Holy Spirit, 28 Church Street, West Haven. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to Connecticut Hospice, 100 Double Beach Road, Branford, CT 06405.

May she rest in peace, and that the memories of her kindness, laughter, and love bring comfort to those who mourn her passing.
