Patricia “Patty” Lynn Crites, 71, of Union Mills, passed away unexpectedly Sunday, July 7, 2019 at the University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, with her daughter by her side holding her hand.
She was born March 23, 1948, in Greenfield, Indiana, to Galen and Rhea (Wilson) Gethers Sr.
Patty was a woman who possessed incredible strength. She never met an obstacle too large to overcome. Patty was deeply passionate about caring for her family. She enjoyed gardening, baking, knitting, reading, spending time with her husband and daughter and playfully tormenting her son-in-law.
Her absence has left a significant void in the hearts of those who loved her, that will never be filled.
On Oct. 19, 1985, in Valparaiso, Indiana, she married the love of her life, Gregory Wayne Crites, who survives.
