It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Patricia J. Williams, 74, who passed away on December 2, 2023.
Patricia was born on January 7, 1949 in Chicago, IL, the daughter of Raymond and Lois (Frantz) Maroder. Pat grew up in Wauconda, IL along with her sister Judy and brother David. She attended Illinois State University where she met her husband Terry. Pat and Terry were married in 1972 and spent time living in Bloomington, IN as well as Tallahassee, FL before returning to Elmhurst, IL where they welcomed their son, Ryan.
Pat spent her career working as a legal secretary, but her true passions were for animals and nature. She spent her free time tending to her perfectly manicured gardens and traveling the country to visit the National Parks. Over the years, she donated generously to organizations such as the World Wildlife Fund, The National Park Service, and many others.
Pat was preceded in death by her parents, Raymond Maroder and Lois (Frantz) Maroder, and her husband Terry. Travis ‘Stanley’ Williams and Doris (Burge) Williams. She is survived by her sister Judy (Jim) Kotelensy, brother David Maroder, son Ryan (Kelly) Williams of St. Charles, IL, and two grandchildren Connor and Kara. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and friend and will be missed by so many.
Visitation will be held on Thursday, December 7 from 4-8pm. A service will be held on Friday, December 8 at 10am. Private internment to follow at Union Cemetery in St. Charles, IL.
