Patricia Ann Prusakiewicz, 86 of Gaylord, passed away at Medilodge of Gaylord on Monday, September 12, 2022.

Born in Saginaw, Michigan on May 30, 1936, she was the daughter of Julian and Cecelia (Basinski) Koblinski.

On November 10, 1956, Patricia married Edmund Prusakiewicz at St. Mary Cathedral in Gaylord.  They raised their family and made their home in Gaylord where Pat helped Edmund in his construction business as its bookkeeper. 

Pat was a devoted wife, mother, and later grandmother and great grandmother.  She was devoted to her Catholic faith and her parish, St. Mary Cathedral.  Pat enjoyed family time, boating, camping, and trips in their motorhome.  She enjoyed feeding the birds around their home and Sunday trips in the car that usually included a stop at Shrine in the Woods in Indian River.  Pat also loved dogs, especially her Pomeranians, Tammy and Dolly.
