In loving memory of Patricia (Pat) Bartley Williams: 1943-2024

Posted

Patricia (Pat) Bartley Williams passed away April 24, 2024, at the age of 80. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Pat was born at home in Nesika, Washington in October 1943. Before graduating from Mossyrock High School, she was hired by Group Health Dental Clinic where she worked for four years. Soon after, she attended and graduated from dental assistant school. Her next job was at Cabrini Hospital as a nurse's aid. A doctor offered her a job after three years, but she decided to then work as a dental assistant. Later, she worked on a flower farm and became a certified florist. However, her most cherished job of all time was raising her family.

Pat will be lovingly remembered by her son Kevin (Lorraine) Williams, daughter Marcia (Barry) O'Rourke, son Larry (Lisa) Williams, brother Dick Bartley, six grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband, Dale Williams, parents, Ed and Marcia Bartley, sisters Donna McAllister and Marlene Susee, and brothers Larry, Bob, Bill and John Bartley.

A funeral service will be held on June 8, at 11 a.m. at Swofford Cemetery, 132 Harrington Road, Mossyrock, with a reception to follow at Jackson Prairie Church, 4224 Jackson Highway, Chehalis.

Pat usually wore red. In her honor, we invite you to wear her favorite color to the service.
