Patty was born on May 16, 1945, in Augusta Maine, to the late Clinton A. Mank and Ann Mank Jones. Patty was also predeceased by her step father, Edward Jones. 

Patty graduated from Waldoboro High School in 1963. After high school, Patty went on to further her schooling at Maine School of Practical Nursing. During her time there, she was class President and graduated at the top of her class. Patty even gave the welcome speech at her graduation in 1965. 

After graduation, Patty worked as an LPN in several hospitals throughout Massachusetts and Maine. Patty's career ended in 2001 due to health reasons, while working at Kno-Wal-Lin Home Care & Hospice in Rockland. 

Patty is survived by several distant cousins and a very special friend, Calli Peters. Patty will be remembered as someone who would go above and beyond for anyone in need and will be remembered for her infectious personality and sense of humor. Patty loved the outdoors and you would often see her sitting on the bench reading a book, waving and saying "hello" to anybody passing by. 

At the request of the deceased, there will be no services. Please send any donations to: Pope Memorial Humane Society of Knox County at 17 Buttermilk Ln in Thomaston, ME.
