Patricia Ann (Ash) Weglarz, 68, of Wells River, VT, died on Thursday, September 15, 2022, at her home after a period of failing health.  She was born in St. Johnsbury, VT on September 14, 1954, to Clarence P. Ash and Gladys (Hale) Ash.  She grew up in Sheffield, VT.

Patricia attended Woodsville High School and Lyndon Institute. She then completed her GED and went on to receive a Bachelor of Business Management degree from Lyndon State and a Bachelor of Elderly Psychology also from Lyndon State.   While at Lyndon, she received the Rita L. Bole award for outstanding academic achievement.  She was known as "Payroll Patty" when she worked at Maska US in Bradford, VT.  She also worked for many years at P&H and at the Barge Inn.

Patricia was a very talented cook and enjoyed trying new recipes.  She enjoyed her flower gardens, fishing for brook trout, dancing and playing cards. One would be remiss to underestimate her at the poker table.  She loved animals and was an avid reader, spending time at the library, along with reading for hours on the beaches at York and Wells.

Patricia was predeceased by her father, Clarence Ash; her mother, Gladys Fisher; stepfather, Leon Fisher; as well as her gram, Emma Ash.

She is survived by her husband, Reginald Weglarz, of Wells River, VT; two daughters, Heather Weglarz, of Stoughton, MA, and Stephani Perkins and her husband Michael, of Newbury, VT; a brother Bernard Ash and his wife Laurie of Sheffield, VT; a sister Sharon Hubbard and her husband Bernard of Lyndonville, VT; two grandchildren, Dakotah Welch and Zackery McKean; three great-grandchildren, Camryn and Liam McKean and Nova Flye; as well as lots of loving family and friends.
