Patricia was born on January 15, 1950, in Putnam, Connecticut, to the late Theresa Bazinet. She grew up in Connecticut, where she attended local schools, and later moved to Maine as a young adult, where she built her life and family.

On January 17, 1975, Patricia married the love of her life, Robert Couture. Together they shared 50 years of marriage and raised a son, of whom she was an exceptional and devoted mother.

Pat was self-employed for many years, operating a successful cleaning service. She also worked as a caretaker, lovingly caring for many children over the years. She was cherished by the families she served. Patricia was always thinking of others and had a special love for children and family.
She especially enjoyed traveling to Amish country in Pennsylvania, where she admired the simplicity of life and beautiful craftsmanship. Patricia loved shopping—particularly at wholesale stores, and treasured shopping trips with her granddaughters, who were truly the light of her life. She also enjoyed crafting and spending time at home with her family.

  2. Last time I seen my sister was in 1976,wish I had spent time with her growing up,sending prayers 🙏🙏🙏 to her family

  3. She was such a loving friend to our family, especially to us as kids. She was so patient and doting and creative. Pat was a great storyteller- we loved hearing about her trips to PA and hearing the pride in her voice whenever she talked about Robbie and Bob and their grandkids and her extended family and friends and cats. She will be truly missed by so many people – she had such a big heart and boundless energy. We will miss her so!

  4. Pat was a part of my families life for many years when my children were young. We appreciated all she did for us and have thought of her kindness may times. On Fridays it was always a treat when we got home from school to see where Pat had placed a stuffed toy or changed something for us to find. Caring and loving were her best qualities. She loved her family and was a wonderful person. Fond memories.

  5. Pat will truly be missed. Pat took on the grandmother role for my daughter Kiley right from the beginning when we brought her home. Kiley thought she was truly her grandmother and adored her. I will miss our phone calls and how we made each other laugh. Pat was caring and giving and never forgot a birthday or holiday. She was one a kind and we will missed.

  6. Wow, there are no words to describe how much of a part of our family Pat was for so many years. She taught me so much about so many things. When I brought my first child home from the hospital and sat looking at him wondering how to be a Mom, she took so much of her time helping me and teaching me everything I didn’t know. We had so much fun and so many laughs together. She helped me find my way out of so many struggles and was always ready to help my family however she could. There is so much more that I could share about this wonderful, selfless woman.
    Until we see each other again my sweet friend

  7. We will miss Pat very much. She was such an important part of our family’s life for many years and a friend and support to me personally. Always so happy and selfless, she made those she cared for feel important, especially the children. It was a great shock that she should be taken so soon. We offer Bob and Robbie, Shannon, Cheyenne and Riley our heartfelt condolences and will keep you all in our prayers.
