Patricia Ann Clements

On Friday, March 29, 2024, God came to take Patricia Ann Clements home, with her children by her side. She was 70 years old.

Patricia was born on Sept. 22, 1953, in Port Washington to the late Rudolph and Erna (Kassens) Stoecker.

On Oct. 25, 1975, she was united in marriage with Michael Clements at St. Ceilia’s Catholic Church in Thiensville. The couple spent over 30 years together.

Throughout her life, Patricia displayed her unwavering commitment to serving others through her role as a manager at St. Vincent de Paul, a nonprofit organization.

Despite not having acquired a diploma during her educational years, Patricia’s determination and work ethic shone brightly in all her endeavors.

Patricia’s joy in life was expressed through her love for sewing, which was particularly evident in her younger years.

Fond of nature, Patricia found solace on her trips up north to Lakewood, where the serenity of the outdoors provided her with a sense of peace.

Her affinity for felines and her prized Santa collection illuminated her warm and nurturing spirit.

A faithful servant of God, Patricia actively participated in her church community, serving as an usher and  treasurer for the Christian Women and dedicating her time to various church activities. Her presence at church events was a source of comfort and inspiration to those around her, reflecting her unwavering faith and commitment to helping others.

Left to cherish her memory are her children Paul (Rebecca) Clements and Jenny (Magan) Clements; grandchildren Paxton, Kennidi, Ty and Austyn; her siblings Robert Stoecker, Bonnie (Gerry) Orten and Sandra (Billy) Bishop; her mother-in-law Mary Clements; and her brothers and sisters-in-law Mark (Susan) Clements, Alan (Stephanie) Clements, Jeffrey (Michelle) Clements, Maribeth (Anthony) Peer, Maureen (Michael) Jacobi and Diane (Daniel) Scheftgen.

A Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 10:30 a.m. Friday, April 12, 2024, at St. John XXIII Catholic Parish, St. Mary’s Church, 451 Johnson St., Port Washington. Father Patrick Wendt will preside over the service. The family will receive visitors at the church from 9 a.m. until the service.

She will be laid to rest at Resurrection Cemetery in Mequon.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Patricia’s name to Luther Preparatory High School, Watertown, Wis., to further the ministry of the Lord.

Eernisse Funeral Home in Port Washington is proudly serving the Clements family.
