Patricia R. Esposita

March 16, 1935 - May 29, 2022

Patricia Esposita, 87, passed away on May 29, 2022. She was an extremely loving and totally devoted Mom her entire life. With a strong faith, she was a life long church goer and often would watch Mass on Television. Pat’s career as a teacher’s assistant at C-A School, gave her much joy, making many friends and enjoying all the conversations through the years. She enjoyed sweets, shopping, and cooking, especially Italian meals. In fact, it was her tradition that every Sunday was spaghetti and meatball day, she would start Sunday morning first with fried meatballs that had just the right crispiness to them as an appetizer, then later came the sauce and she would always say I made enough for an army, so Monday’s became leftover day and it always tasted just as good that second day. She really loved being with family and looked forward to the many visits with Tony and Rocky, her grandkids who traveled a long distance to see her. Patricia is survived by her children, Sandra, Thomas, Patrick (Barbara) and Steven Esposita; siblings, Leonard (Rose) Wood, Jean (George) Frees, MaryJane (Yale) Frank; grandchildren; and great-grandchildren; nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Patricia is predeceased by her husband, Thomas Esposita and her parents, Leroy and Josephine Wood. A special thanks to her Goddaughter and niece Tammy Hathaway for the extraordinary attention, kindness and love she showed her Aunt Pat through the years. Also, thanks to her daughter-in-law Barbara for all of her special care. Friends may call at the Babcock Funeral Home, Ravena on Tuesday, June 7th from 4 to 7PM.
