Patricia went to Mesick Schools and graduated with the Class of 1954. She enjoyed playing her saxophone in the band. She met Rolland Danford and they were married November 20, 1954. With their children, they took many family trips and made a very happy home together. Patricia worked many years as a dedicated employee in the manufacturing industry. She eventually retired from Michigan Rubber. Once retired, Patricia often took care of her grandchildren. It was known that "Grandma Danford" would always have a plate at her table for you. No friend or loved one ever left her house hungry.
Patricia had a unique way of not letting little things bother her and always made life feel easier. Above all else, Patricia treasured her family and would do anything for them. Kindness shined brightly through her. She will be dearly missed.
