Patricia's obituary

Patricia Joan Gray, 77, of Brookfield, Illinois, passed away peacefully on August 18, 2021, after a lengthy battle with dementia. Patricia was born in Berwyn, Illinois to James and LaVerne Gray and grew up in Stickney, Illinois. She worked as a nurse for over 40 years and adored taking care of her patients. Patricia was a dedicated mother and grandmother first and foremost. She treasured her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and embraced every moment with them. She had a vivacious personality and always made people around her laugh. She made friends everywhere she went, and her patients and co-workers loved her as well. Patricia was an avid Chicago Bears and Chicago Cubs fan. She will be dearly missed and always remembered.

Patricia is survived by her son, daughter, & stepson: Robert Senese (Susan), Jill Senese (Pete), and Steven Zilewicz. Patricia is survived by her brother James Gray (Mariann). She is also survived by four grandchildren and one step-grandson: Brittni Calderon (Luis), Robert Senese (Bridget), Matthew Senese (Gina), and Samantha Senese. Patricia was a great-grandma of eight. She also leaves many other family members and friends who will deeply miss her and love her always.

We request Patricia’s friends and family to join us in celebrating her beautiful life on Saturday, August 28, 2021, at St. Louise de Marillac Catholic Church located at 1155 Harrison Avenue in LaGrange Park, Illinois. Visitation will begin at 11 a.m. followed by mass at noon. Luncheon immediately following at Robert & Susan's home.
