ORLEANS - Patricia A. Smith, 88, of Orleans, passed away August 1, 2017 at The Woodlands at Pleasant Bay in Brewster. Known as "Pat" to her group of friends in the lower-Cape area, Pat was a long-time resident of Orleans.
She was an avid reader and frequent visitor to the Orleans public library. Pat loved the Cape's natural beauty, spending her early retirement years boating and clamming in the inlets and coves of the region. As a backyard nature observer, she could readily identify dozens of birds, usually just by listening to their calls and songs.
Pat will be lovingly remembered by her friends, Norma May, Valerie May and George Stuteville.
Graveside services will be at 3pm in the Orleans Town Cemetery on August 16th, 2017.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions can be made to St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital. https://www.stjude.org/give.html
