Obituary of Patricia J. Kirn
PATRICIA KIRN
Patricia A. Kirn, 82, of Akron, Ohio, was welcomed into her eternal home on Tuesday, July 11, 2017, at Danbury Senior Living. Born November 29, 1934 in Akron, Ohio, she was the daughter of the late Maurice Jost and Myrtle Heft Jost.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, with whom she is joyfully reunited with, Walter “Tom” Kirn, and grandson, Andrew Kirn.
Patricia is survived by her daughter, Polly (Dave) Patron of Canton, Ohio; sons, John and Mike Kirn of Akron, Ohio, Jim (Holly) Kirn of Columbus, Ohio; grandchildren, Jennifer, Matthew (Siobhan), Angela, Mikala Kirn, David Jr. Patron (Caroline Macko) and Mary Patron (Bryan Boyd), Madison Kirn; great-grandchildren, Layla, Devin, and Aiden; and sisters, Phyllis Monahan of Melbourne, Florida and Marilyn (Jim) Sturmi of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
She was a member of St. Vincent De Paul Church and TWIGS. She was a graduate of the University of Akron, where she was a member of the sorority Alpha Delta Pi. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Patricia was a strong, confident, woman whose passion to nurture led her to teaching and making a difference in the lives of children at Schumacher School for 35 years. She was a lifetime member of Schumacher PTA.
