- Patricia d. Dooley December 6, 1928 - October 17, 2014
Patricia D. Dooley of Plymouth, Michigan, age 85, passed away peacefully in her sleep on October 17, 2014.
She was born on December 6, 1928 in Detroit, Michigan, the daughter of Robert Emmett and Viola McCoy.
She met the love of her life and best friend forever, Tom Dooley, while still in High School at St. Anthonys in Detroit. They were married in 1952 after she graduated from Nazareth College with a teaching degree in early education.
She was proud to say, as an elementary teacher, she supported Tom as he finished his final year for an MBA at the University of Michigan.
Their loving marriage of 62 years was the kind most people just dream of and it continues to inspire their 6 children and spouses and their 14 grandchildren.
She was a homemaker, devoted to her family and later greatly enjoyed her role as Grandma.
Pats Catholic faith served as the foundation for the way she lived her life.
She worshipped God and prayed for His assistance and guidance daily.
She looked at each day as a gift and filled it with love and laughter.
She had the ability to make even the simplest activities some of the greatest pleasures for her family such as singing around a campfire, enjoying a picnic at a park, or spending a day at the beach.
Her faith in God and the future brought a sense of peace to others.
Her love will continue to live on in those she leaves behind while they look forward to the day when they will be reunited.
Pat is survived by her loving husband Tom Dooley; six children
Roger (Kathy) Dooley, Dennis (Carol) Dooley, Alyce (Bruce) Cummings, Kathleen Hadley, Jennifer (Joe) Cruitt and Tom (Chu Yun) Dooley;
fourteen grandchildren: Brittany, John and Eric Dooley, Ryan and Chris Dooley, Chelsea and Kyle Cummings, Sean , Beth, Christina and Colleen Hadley and Patrick, William and Timmy Cruitt.
She is also survived by many nieces and nephews.
