Greece / Bloomfield: At age 90, Pat passed away peacefully on Sunday, August 4, 2024, at the LeRoy Village Green. She was born on February 20, 1934, to the late Charles and Gertrude Haus. Mom joined Dad and her siblings, punched her ticket, and took the last train home. Pat is predeceased by her beloved husband, B. Joseph Turcotte, her infant son, Paul, and her sisters, Eileen (Dayle) Martin, Linda (Roger) Wright, Sandra (Murray) Pelton, her brother, William Haus, and her brother-in-law, Robert (Laura) Turcotte.
Survived by her children, Thomas (Karen) Turcotte, Michael (Becky) Turcotte, Kathy (Don) McPherson, Marie Jones, Tim Turcotte, and Monica Turcotte, her 9 grandchildren, Kittie (Ron) Black, Tommy (Patricia) Turcotte, Paula (Matt) Bertram, Matt (Jenn) Turcotte, Jill McPherson, Cam (Katie) McPherson, Jessica Jones, Veronica Rice, Jordan Turcotte and 11 great-grandchildren, along with several nieces and nephews. She left us with these words to live by: “Stop dwelling, regretting, and holding on to negatives in the past. Chew it up – spit it out and move on.”
Pat had a wonderful sense of humor and was a great example of being able to laugh at one’s self and take things lightly. She enjoyed quilting, sketching, and painting.

Mike & Becky, You have our deepest, heartfelt condolences. A wonderful person, your mother, always cheerful and helpful. Wishing you and your loved ones peace and strength. Love always, Tom and Cassie
I grew on Cheltenham Rd. back in the ’40s. I remember Charie and Gert. I hung around with Linda and Sandy playing in the old neighborhood. Billy was younger and loved to try and pick on his older sisters. Eileen and your Mom being older I don’t remember to much except seeing Eileen in her wedding dress the day she got married getting into the car. Your Mom, I met several years later when she and your Dad were members at North Greece Fire Dept. and lived on Latta Rd. They were a wonderful close family and I was sad to read that they are now all passed. Hold onto your precious memories and the happy times you shared with them.
Our thoughts and prayers for our friends Turk and Bec, along with all the family with the loss of their mom.
I’m sorry for the family’s loss. I won’t be able to attend but know that I’m thinking of you all. Hugs and love to all. Aunt Pat will always be remembered as the “ladybug” lady.
Our thoghts and prayers are with our good friends Turk and Bec and with all the family on the loss of their mom.
I’m so sorry I won’t be able to make it. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to all of you. She will always be remembered as the ladybug lady. Love to you all.
To all of our cousins,
Please know that all of the Cullen’s are thinking of you and wrapping our arms around you at this time. Sending lots of love and prayers to each and every one of you. She was an incredible, funny lady and she is now reunited with Uncle Joe and Paul, smiling down on each of you.
A life well lived for sure!
Thinking of you all,
The Cullen Cousins
Pat you were always a special Cousin and sorry that I had lost track of you.
Sending Love to your Family.
Loved my Aunt Pat; can still feel her vibration in the world. All the sisters (and the brother!) are back together now.
I can’t be their Thursday but sending lots of love to everyone. My second family love you all.
I could not have ask for a better mother in law. She loved her family. She inspired you to think outside the box. To be who you are. And not let the anchors of the past weigh you down. I loved her so much!
