Patricia Jean Harshbarger earned her wings on Friday, April 12, 2024 and went home to be with Jesus in Heaven. Born on October 29, 1939 in Riverdale, CA to Glen E. and Vina A. Miles, Patricia lived more than 75 of her 84 years on the same property where she was born. She graduated from Riverdale High School in 1958 and married John J. Harshbarger in 1959 and together they raised five children. Patricia’s final years were spent near family in Reedley, where she enjoyed her independent living apartment at Sierra View Homes. Known for being a sweet, kind lady, Patricia always had a listening ear for her children, grandchildren and neighbors alike. Serving as a Homemaker, family always meant the most to her and she spent a good amount of time sewing clothing and blankets for the kids, grandkids and great-grandkids.
Patricia is preceded in death by her husband, John Joseph, and her son, John Glen Harshbarger. She is survived by her brother Norman Miles and sister Lucille Morisoli and husband Mike. Patricia is also survived by daughters Lisa Geiss and husband Andy, Audrey Taylor and husband Curt, Pam Pixler and husband Dan, son, Michael Harshbarger, 18 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and countless cousins, nieces and nephews who loved her. Patricia will be laid to rest on Monday, April 29th at 9:00 am with a graveside service at Oak Grove Cemetery in Laton. Following, a brief Celebration of Life will take place at Sierra View Retirement Community in Reedley at 11:00 am in the Terraces Apartment Building Community Area. Everyone is welcome to attend either or both services. Remembrances can be made to Sierra View Homes Retirement Community 1155 E. Springfield Ave. Reedley, CA 93654.
