Patricia Ann (Richards) Byrne

BRANDON:

Patricia Ann Byrne was a good person.  She passed away on December 26, 2025.

Patricia grew up on a dairy farm in West Haven, Vermont.  Her parents, Mary “Set Shot” Ryan and Raymond Richards, raised six children who knew how to work hard and persevere.

After leaving the farm, Patricia set out to help other people.  She attended the Jeanne Mance School of Nursing at the University of Vermont.  She then moved to Pennsylvania and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s of nursing.  She worked as a registered nurse for many years and helped numerous people.  When her father became ill at the end of his life, she took him into her home and cared for him.

Patricia is also the mother of six children: Vince, Matt, Andy, Paul, Mark, and Todd.  Patricia did her best to fight for and protect each of them.  Patricia had nine grandchildren.

Patricia was predeceased by her son Todd, her sisters Joan and Mary Kay and her brother Raymond, Jr.  She is survived by her brothers Jim and Peter.

The family would like to thank all who cared for her in her final years, especially Mark, Terry Ryan, Cathy Chase, and the nurses.
