Loving mother of Kristine Julia (Adams) Cahoon and her husband Charles, Jill-Marie (Adams) Richardson and partner Jeffrey Therrien, Michael Richardson (son-in-law), and Jeffrey Walter Adams, all of North Adams. Beloved Grandmother (Marmee) to Kortni (Cahoon) Pikula and her husband Sean of North Adams, Collin Cahoon and his wife Andrea of Clarksburg, Gretel (Cahoon) Crewe and her husband Brendan of Tewksbury, Kyle Cahoon of North Adams, Jordon Richardson and his wife Jackie of North Adams, Hannah Richardson of North Adams, and Justin, Lindsay, and Jeffrey Michael.

She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.
Patricia was a friend to many, who cared deeply for her family and loved ones. She could truly make a friend anywhere she went. A devoted child of God who, until her last breath, shared the salvation message and prayed over everyone who stepped foot in her hospital room. Patricia was a member of many clubs such as Friends of the North Adams Library, North Adams Regional Hospital Women’s Auxiliary, and Quilting Bees. She enjoyed her time volunteering at New Direction Women’s Center, tag-saling with her dear friends, and spending time with her family. Patricia’s grandchildren were her pride and joy and she spent many years helping care for and raise her great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed by all who loved her.
