Patricia Butcher

May 22, 1950 - December 14, 2020

Patricia Ellen Butcher, 70, passed away on Monday, December 14, 2020. A Private Memorial Graveside service will be held at Calvary Cemetery. Pat loved people, especially children. For most of her working years, Pat cared for infants and preschool children of young couples until the youngest began school. She followed the progress of each child who had been in her care, and proudly displayed their latest school pictures alongside cherished photographs of the many nieces and nephews in her extended family. She always had a smile on her face, and was so interested in the lives of everyone around her. She is survived by one sister, Dina Butcher Gannon (Billy); three brothers, Michael Butcher (Dottie), Ronald Butcher (Kathy) and Tony Butcher (Rosemary); ten nieces and nephews, Josh Butcher, Molly Butcher LaCombe, Phillip Butcher, Elizabeth Elias Juge, Margaret Butcher Tyson, Michelle Butcher Meyers, Mary Butcher Kimball, Sarah Gannon, William Gannon III, and Emily Gannon. She was preceded in death by her parents, Matt and Cecile Hebert Butcher; and her sister, Kathy Butcher. Pat's family is grateful to the staff at Lady of the Oaks Retirement Manor for their compassionate care of Pat and kindness to her family.
