Patty fought hard, always with a positive attitude, so strong, and never gave up hope, but on Saturday, January 11, two years after receiving the heartbreaking diagnosis of stage IV Colon Cancer, 42-year-old Patty passed away at home, surrounded by family.
Patty was a sweet, loving devoted daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, sister, loved one and friend to many. Patty made everyone feel like family. She loved to cook, fish, loved animals, but more than anything loved spending time with her family. She was loved and will be missed greatly. Her loved ones have peace in knowing she is no longer suffering, no more pain and in the arms of Jesus now.
Patty leaves behind her best friend and devoted husband, Nathan Roca. Her children, Jeremy Warren (Noel), Joshua Warren (Lainsley), Braxton Spaulding (Whittany), Haley Spaulding (Bryson), Hayley Roca and grandson Jaxon Warren all of Leicester, NC.
