Patricia McNall

    Patricia A. “Tricia” McNall, age 74, of Saukville, Wis., was dearly loved and welcomed home by the Lord on Tuesday, Feb. 22, 2022, while at home with her family.
    She was born in Sturgeon Bay, Wis., on April 6, 1947, the daughter of John W. and Mildred Krause Smolos.  
    Tricia grew up in Milwaukee, meeting James C. McNall of Waukegan, Ill. They were married at Holy Redeemer Church in Milwaukee on May 17, 1969.
    In 1977, the McNall family moved to Saukville.
    Over the years she held various jobs. The one she valued the most was being a mom, which continued through with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
    Tricia and her husband had been active through Calvary Church in West Bend.  
    She enjoyed crafting and making personal cards that she sent to family and friends throughout the year.  
    Tricia knit hats for infants and cancer patients and had even donated breast milk in her early years to help other young mothers and their children.
    Her husband Jim preceded her in death on Sept. 21, 2017. He too is deeply missed.
    Tricia is survived by her seven children, John (Tami) McNall of West Melbourne, Fla., Jim (Vickie) McNall of Colgate, Michelle (Thad) Madrinich of Independence, Ky., David (Lori) McNall of Mukwonago, Jeremiah McNall of West Bend, Rebekah “Becky” Kultgen of Port Washington and Daniel McNall of Milwaukee.  
    She is further survived by 15 grandchildren, Brandon, Jacob, Brittany (Danny), Joshua (Jayme), Jonathan (Izzy), Taylor (Amber), Christian (Taylor), Faith, Caleb, Elysia, Victoria, Chloe, Ivy, Keylani and Kaidyn; three great-grandchildren, Isabella, Aubrey and Rylan; her sister Terry (Edward) Kastelic; sister-in-law Diane Smolos; nieces; nephews; other relatives; and friends.
    Tricia was preceded by mom, dad and brother John Smolos.
    No formal service will be held.
