Her family moved to Savannah when she was just a baby. “Patsy” grew up here and graduated from Commercial High School where she made many cherished friendships that last to this day. She was a past member of the Gordonston Garden Club, worked for many years at Lady Jane, Levy Jewelers, and Oglethorpe Trolley Tours. But she was probably most remembered as the “Talbots Lady” from her almost 20 years at Talbots from which she retired. Pat was a member of Isle of Hope United Methodist Church, was in the Berean Sunday School class and was in the Good Samaritan Circle. She loved God and her church family, and they in turn loved and cared for her with their steadfast commitment of their time, prayers and visits.
Pat had many amazing qualities, but her gift and lasting legacy was her pure selflessness.
She always put the needs of others before her own. Throughout her life she endured many challenges, having lost her husband at age 51 up until her recent stroke and serious injury she was the ultimate optimist and never gave up hope that things would somehow get better. She was able to withstand many personal struggles and setbacks but you would never hear her complain. Even while enduring the debilitating effects of her severe stroke, her concerns were always for her children, grandchildren and others. Through her unwavering faith in God, she had an amazing strength to endure and survive and we are all better for having known her and witnessed this. She was so strong, but her body gave out long before her spirit did.
In addition to her parents, Pat was preceded in death by her loving husband, John E. Curry, sisters Juanita Gilliam, Betty Fowler, and Margaret Martin.
Her family would like to extend our thanks to Buckingham South and her wonderful caregivers and the caring staff of Hospice Savannah for lovingly caring for her and making a positive contribution to her life.
The funeral service will take place at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, March 31, 2016, at Isle of Hope United Methodist Church. The family will receive friends at a reception following the service. Interment will follow at 2:00 p.m. at Beaufort National Cemetery in Beaufort, SC.
In lieu of flowers the family suggests remembrances to Isle of Hope United Methodist Church, 412 Parkersburg Rd., Savannah, GA 31406.
