Irene Mary Patrick

A Life Well LIVED!!!

Born and raised in New Jersey with her parents Emery and Mary Szilvasi, as well as younger brother Emery “Slim”. With her kindness and grace, Renee made lifelong friendships. She married Bill Patrick and they shared a loving union of 40+ years. Renee and Bill moved to California in the early 1950’s. Together Renee and Bill created a wonderful life, they gave back to their community and they had a professional passion for real estate, owned and operated mobile home parks until Bill’s death in 1993.

In the early 2000’s Renee became a global traveler. She ventured to Europe in search of her roots. In Hungary she was thrilled to connect with family and make new connections. She was inspired to extend her vacation and took a bus tour of Russia. It was on this bus tour that she met the second love of her life Richard Baker.

The two shared a special and sweet love for each other. They were “sweeties”, and enjoyed traveling visiting National Parks, Las Vegas, Laughlin, Arizona and of course Richard’s home in Australia. They were blessed to spend more than 20 years together.

Renee loved to explore and take pictures of all her travels and times with family and friends.

Renee you are loved by all who you touched with your smile, grace and kindness. We will all carry you forward in our memories and hearts. Until we meet again…

Love always!!!
