Patricia Lu Guckenberg, 64

Patricia Lu Guckenberg, 64, of Fortine, passed away June 19, 2012, in the presence of her loved ones.

Patricia was born on May 6, 1948, in Bellingham, Wash., to Warren “Mick” and Dorothy Read, where she grew up and later moved to Montana.  

Pat was known to many as Ma, Nana, Auntie Pat, Sister and Friend.  

She enjoyed the outdoors; some of her favorites were horseback riding, fishing, hunting and going ice fishing with her boys.

Patricia is survived by her brothers, Andy and Jim Read; and sisters, Shirley Mullen and Kelly Yamane.  Pat's legacy of love will continue to live on through her three sons, Mickey, Michael and Matthew; her grandchildren, Megan, Kathy, Mickey Jr., Elizabeth, Kandra, Mckay, Shelbie, Warren, Matt Jr., Haidyn, Wyatt and Austyn; and her great-grandchildren, Ariel, Eric and Montana.  

“Patricia will be reuniting with her Mother and Father who predeceased her.”

Pat will be greatly missed by all who knew her, and those who love her “with all our hearts,” as she “rides the wide open trails in the sky.”

Arrangements are by Schnackenberg & Nelson Funeral Home in Eureka.
