Patricia Anne Porter was born in Springfield, Oregon on November 4, 1960, to Peggy Madison and David McKee. She peacefully passed away on May 1, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. Patricia was a loving mother, grandmother, family member, and friend whose warmth and laughter filled every room she entered. She had a caring heart and a strong spirit, always making those around her feel welcomed, loved, and cared for.
Patty's favorite pastimes included sunbathing, listening to music, finding a good bargain, and winning big at the bingo hall or casino. She also enjoyed crafting various gifts for family, a good cup of coffee, winning card games, and, most of all, cooking and sharing recipes with her family, making sure to never leave anyone out of love.
Her greatest pride and joy was her family. Her legacy is remembered by her five children, eleven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren. Her determined spirit, sense of humor, and love for life will be continued through her family.
Patricia is lovingly remembered by her stepmother, Doris McKee, and her siblings, Bill McKee, Colleen Ostlund, Randy McKee, Marvin Bates, Dawn Attleberger, and Sheri Boatmun. She was preceded in death by her mother, Peggy Madison; father, David McKee; step-father, Forest Bates; and siblings, David Glen McKee and Mike McKee.
Patricia's kindness, strength, humor, and unconditional love will never be forgotten. Though she may no longer walk beside us, her spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
