Carol Kesler Patrick, 67, of North Apollo passed away peacefully on February 25, 2024, after a short but courageous battle with cancer. Born on September 10, 1956, she was the daughter of the late Robert Kesler and Lois Bowser. Carol attended Kiski Area High School. She married Stephen O. Patrick on August 10, 1973. She was a homemaker for her two children and her late husband. She was a woman of great faith and love for God. Her favorite bible verse was Isaiah 41:10. She enjoyed going to softball games and to oldies dances with Steve as well as outings and events with her family. She loved being outside, porch sitting, wearing 'tip-taps', drinking coffee, and attending picnics. She made the best pies and was a great home cook. She liked listening to oldies, playing cards, and watching cooking shows. Her favorite times were spent with family, especially her grandkids, having laughs and making memories. After the passing of her husband, she was an example of strength, love, and faith.

Carol is survived by her daughter, Jennifer (Frank) Matarrese of Kittanning; her son, Stephen R. Patrick of Cadogan; and two grandchildren, Anthony and Kaitlyn Matarrese.

In addition to her parents and her husband, Carol is preceded in death by her three sisters: Rheta, Lori, and Linda Kesler and her brother, William Kesler.
