Obituary of Patricia Anne (née Tooley) Avery

Elegance. Spirit. Pure Love. That was Patricia Anne Avery (née Tooley) from the moment she entered this world on March 17, 1945, until the day she left, on Monday, July 13, 2020. She was a stunning, fierce, fire cracker of a lady with a big heart, who adored her family and close friends and was the first to respond when someone was in need. Patricia was always independent and because of her inherited strong family work ethics, she enjoyed over 40 years as a well-respected business woman. Pat was an amazing mother to Kristel and Kristina, a proud Nana to Jenna and Julia and a beloved wife to the late Ken Avery. Predeceased by her parents, Edward and Lillian Tooley. She was a treasured little sister to Beverley Clarkson; sister-in-law to Barbara Hanes and late Robert Clarkson; and aunt to Jane, late Paul, Robert, Scott, Jeff, and Steph.
