Patricia was born at home in Chicago on August 27, 1940, to the late Henry and Edna (Luczak) Roth.

Patricia was a tax preparer for 32 years, retiring in 2012. She owned the H&R Block franchise in Lake Geneva with partners Joan Ehlen and Linda Bihum for 20 years. She cherished the many trips the three took together, throughout the U.S. and beyond. Patricia fondly remembered their trip to Europe and visit to The Vatican.
She was a loyal Green Bay Packers fan and loved her McDonald’s coffee – always a large with 6 creams! She enjoyed drawing, painting, reading and spending time “up north” with her family.
She was a devoted daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, and friend who always tried to do right for all the people in her life. Patricia believed grandchildren were the reward given for a life well lived, and she never turned down an opportunity to babysit.
