Patricia "Trish" Irene Newman

Trish was very loyal; she was a free spirit and didn't hold grudges. She would always tell her son, Ricky, that she was gonna whip him with the belt and would laugh (she didn't whip us kids). Trish loved a wide variety of flowers; she also loved playing in the pool with us kids. Trish also liked playing Canasta cards with her brother, Jeff. Trisha was the 1st born of 5 children, and she helped her mom out with taking care of her siblings. Trish loved animals, especially dogs, and her dog Trixy. Trish loved the ocean, and Hampton beach in New Hampshire. Trish loved to travel but didn't like to drive far. Trish loved her music, and she also liked chatting with people on Facebook messenger (she has many friends on the web). Her and her husband Rodney loved coming to Rick's house for cookouts and visiting with their grandchildren. She liked talking about the next trip somewhere, and told her brother Jeff that his trip and food was paid for as long as he drove.

Trish was Born in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, to Thomas W. O'Reilly and Ella Mae O'Reilly (Pat). She had 2 sisters Melody and Terri, and 2 brothers Jeff and Tommy. Trish has 4 Children: Cheryl Ann Leary of Bedford, NH, Ricky Thomas Leary of Del City, David Joseph Leary of Midwest City, and Amber Dawn Humphrey of Norman; Grandchildren: Ericka, Christian, Richard Jr., Haley, Patrick and Madeline Leary.

Trish loved her family very much.

Trisha had a fear of driving herself around until she met and married Rodney Newman; he was very calm and helped her to drive. Trish very much loved being around her family for birthdays and holidays; sometimes she didn't have fuel money to make it and Trish had a hard time asking for help in times of need. Trish and her siblings lived in Nashua, New Hampshire on Lund Road; she always talked about living there. Tricia met and married her husband and best friend Rodney Newman in 1997. They took trips, went to concerts, and they loved each other very much. They had many good times together and some not so good. Trish and Rodney took care of each other through thick and thin. Trish took care of Rodney when her own health was getting bad.

Trish and her siblings went to Catholic school. Trish later on was a nurse's aide at Midwest City Hospital, where I see pictures of my mom always smiling. Trish, Our Momma, did her best. I, Ricky, Cheryl, David, and Amber all had some ups and downs but she loved all of us. Trisha very much believed in our Heavenly Father, and one of her favourite verses was: The Lord is my strength; He is my God, and I will praise Him - Exodus 15:2.

As Trish and Rodney's health was failing, Trish took care of Rodney as he had a battle with diabetes and kidney failure. Trish had always had some back pain and a disease on her legs that caused many problems, but they both took care of each other as much as they could until the Lord called Rodney home on June 17th, 2022. Trish had fallen a few times, so then her son, Ricky, stepped in and cared for Mom until they found out that Trish had Stage 4 metastatic cancer. Trish was able to live out her last days at home with her family by her side.
