Patricia Joanne Pomeroy, of Edenton, NC, a beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, July 20, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, strength, and devotion to her family.
Born in Huntington, West Virginia, Patricia spent her formative years in the city she cherished most, Chicago. After graduation, she later moved to California, where she married Frederick Pomeroy. Together, they built a home in Southern California and raised three children. Following retirement, Patricia returned to her Midwestern roots and settled in Western Michigan before eventually finding her peaceful haven in Edenton, North Carolina, where she learned to embrace the charm of small-town life.
Patricia was the rock of her family—steady, compassionate, and deeply loved. Her presence was a source of comfort and strength to all who knew her. She is survived by her children: Jeffrey Pomeroy (Kurt Koetsier), David Pomeroy, and Kate Pomeroy; and by three grandchildren she adored: Jenna Scott (Chris), Jessica Smith (Kemper), and David Jr. Pomeroy (Samantha). She was also the proud great-grandmother of eleven: Elyssa, Evalyn, Eleanor, Edaline, Eyden, Kemper Jr., Charlotte, Autumn, Theo, Alaynna, and Addie.
Patricia was a woman of deep faith and a devoted prayer warrior. Long after her passing, her prayers will continue to be answered, and her memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved her. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered for her unwavering love, quiet strength, and enduring grace.
The family will hold a private gathering.
In lieu of flowers, please consider supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, a cause Patricia was deeply passionate about.
