Connor

Patricia “Patt” Connor passed away on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at the age of 74. 

Patt was the loving wife of 54 years to Mike Connor. Patt and Mike raised a wonderful family in the Roxborough neighborhood of Philadelphia. She was a devoted mother to Michael (Marie), Eric (Leigh), and Christopher (Sundari), a proud and doting Nonnie to Megan, Grace, Evan, and Joshua, and a favorite aunt to many nieces and nephews. She also loved playing the role of 2nd mom to many of her children’s friends as well as many others that she ‘adopted’ along the way. Her family was the center of her world, and she treasured every moment spent with them. 

Patt worked for many years as a front-end manager at ShopRite of Roxborough, where she built lasting friendships with coworkers and customers. She later moved onto Wissahickon Orthopedics, where she finished her career working side by side with her dear friend, Kathy Gondek, along with the rest of her great colleagues. 

She loved family vacations to the Jersey Shore, Myrtle Beach, Florida, Maine, and everywhere in between—creating memories and stories that we will always cherish and share. 

Patt was always on the hunt for a new thrift store, where she never met a deal she didn’t like and took great joy in sharing how little she paid for her latest “beautiful” new find. 

She had a special gift for connecting with people. The doors to her home—and her heart—were always open. Everywhere she went, Patt made new friends and quickly treated them like family. Her warmth, kindness, and especially her sense of humor left a lasting impression on everyone she met. 

Patt will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her. 

Family and friends are invited to meet with her family, Thursday 9 AM and to participate in her memorial mass 10:30 AM at St. John the Baptist Church, 119 Rector Street, Phila. Int. private.
