Patricia Boehmke, 79, passed away peacefully on January 30, 2022 after a brief, courageous battle with brain cancer. She was born and raised in Elmont, NY to Harry and Raffaela Grote. Pat is survived by her husband Dan, her sister and brother-in-law Pam and Jim Young, daughter and son-in-law Vanessa and Mike Loftus, and grandchildren Gabriel and Jillian.

 

Always caring for others, Pat pursued a career in nursing and brought that skill and compassion to all areas of her life. Those who had the privilege of meeting her were always impressed with her kindness and generosity. 

 

She lived a beautiful life; whether it was cultivating a flourishing garden, decorating her inviting home, or knitting a masterful sweater. Most of all, it is her beautiful heart that all of us will miss so deeply.
