Patricia was born on June 30, 1934 in Coloma, Michigan and raised on Little Paw Paw Lake. She graduated at the top of her class from Coloma High School and remained a life long learner. Shortly after graduation, she moved to Benton Harbor, Michigan and worked at Star Girl in the Fidelity Building as a secretary. She and Henry James Kircher were married on July 3, 1954 and after a short time in Benton Harbor, they established residence in Stevensville.

Her working career involved office management positions that required attention to detail and a compassionate ear; traits right in line with Patricia’s character. Patricia was a published author, an avid reader and enjoyed corresponding with friends and family. She also enjoyed attending art shows and brown bag concerts on the bluff.

She is survived by her daughter Bonni (Kircher) Sullivan as well as numerous, loving, relatives and friends. She is preceded in death by her parents John and Gladys McCrery Sr; a brother:  Johnny “Red” McCrery Jr; a sister: Kathryn Gard-Sauvey and her former husband Henry James Kircher.
