It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Mrs. Patricia Aurelia Tiggs-Riley, a resolute beacon of faith and love who transitioned peacefully into eternal rest on December 4, 2025. Born on January 14, 1947, Patricia lived a vibrant life characterized by deep devotion to her family and church, a passion for cooking, and a spirit of service that touched all who knew her.

Patricia's life was a testament to the power of love and faith. She embraced the calling of evangelism with a fervor that was infectious. Her voice was a soothing balm to the troubled, her words a salve to the wounded spirit. Her church family knew her as a pillar of strength and unwavering faith, a woman who navigated life with an unshakeable trust in God.

If Patricia was a shepherd in the church, she was the best cook at home and within her wider circle of friends. Her cooking was a celebration of love and community, a feast not just for the palate but for the soul. Many will fondly remember the warmth of her kitchen and the love that generously flowed from her food.

Patricia leaves behind a lineage of love. Her son, Nairobi Riley. Her grandchildren, Justin Caldwell, Somone Lindsey, Josalyn Meadows, and Serenity Riley and a long list of great grandkids, nieces, nephews, and friends. They will carry forward the torch of her love and passion. They, alongside countless other lives she touched, will keep Patricia's memory alive, a shining testament of her impact on this world.

As we mourn the loss of a remarkable woman, we also celebrate a life well lived, a journey marked by love, faith, and service. Rest in peace, Grandma. Your spirit continues to live on in the love you left behind.
