Patricia Cleo Ellison, 81, of Sartell, MN, passed away suddenly on December 02, 2020 after battling lung cancer five times over a twelve year period. She was recently diagnosed for the sixth time and had just finished her first round of chemotherapy in November when she contracted the corona virus. It quickly turned the cancer into a much more aggressive opponent in which she was unable to recover.


Patricia, born on March 17, 1939 to Charles and Irene Albert in Williston, ND, immediately brought joy and laughter into the world. Patricia went on to graduate from Williston High School in 1957.


After graduating from high school she moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota and worked in an office support position.


She met a young man named David Ellison and the two were inseparable from that point on. Dave and Pat were married for over 56 years and had one child, Jeffrey Ellison who has always been proud of his parents dedication to marriage and calls them "the two most honest, responsible people that I've ever met".


She worked for the St Louis Park school system for many years in the bakery department, which makes sense as she's known for her wonderful cooking and baking skills.


Pat was a very dedicated wife and mother, family came first above all else, a value she instilled in those around her. The hole left by her absence is impossible to fill.


Patricia is survived by David Ellison, Husband (who joined her in heaven 12/21/20) / Jeffrey Ellison, Son / Julian Ellison, Grandson / Olivia Ellison, Granddaughter / Sydney Ellison, Granddaughter / Savannah Ellison, Granddaughter / Numerous In-laws, Cousins, Nieces & Nephews, and close friends.


Patricia was predeceased in death by Charles Albert,
Father / Irene Albert (Skaff), Mother / George Albert, Brother / Gene Albert, Brother / Eddie Albert, Brother / Don Albert, Brother / Edna Geller, Sister / Leona Palmer, Sister / Julie Croy, Sister / Winnie Gamache, Sister.
