She grew up in Fairview Park, Ohio and attended high school there. She then went on to Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio where she studied Interior Design. She married her high school sweetheart, Jerold Noble Bright (1934-2002) on March 8, 1953.
Patricia was warmhearted, kind, family-oriented, and prioritized her faith and daughters above all else. She was a woman ahead of her time, full of energy and dedicated to a profession she loved. She served as Director of Sales and Catering in Wedding/Event Planning. She was known in the industry as the one who went above and beyond to ensure the brides’ special day was all they had hoped it to be.
She was vivacious, loving, and a generous lady who always put others’ needs ahead of her own. Her energy and enthusiasm were contagious to others when she entered a room. The world is a more beautiful place because of her and she will be missed by many.
She is survived by her sister Barbara Bryenton of Fairview Park, OH. Her three daughters Pamela (David) Reist of Mt. Joy, PA, Cynthia (Kevin) Cassidy of Columbus, OH, and Lynne (Mark) Annen of Columbus, OH. Grandchildren Erin (Mike) Higgins, Meryl (Ethan) Gibbel, Jennie (Pat) Ferry, Dana (Seth) Custer, Sean (Leila) Cassidy, Brianne (Jason) Hartke, Blake (Kathleen) Annen, Emily (Ian) Cooney, and Connor (Krystal) Annen; and her eighteen great- grandchildren who loved her dearly.
Patricia was preceded in death by her parents Doris and Maxwell Brown.
