Patricia Booker Dudley died Thursday, April 13, 2017 at Hawthorne House, Freeport, ME. Patricia was 92 years old. She was predeceased by her husband of almost 65 years, Sidney Armour Dudley, who passed away February 21, 2017.

Patricia “Patty” was born on September 29, 1924 to George and Nellie Booker. She spent her early years in West Bath attending Grange and was a member of the Rainbow Girls. She proudly graduated from Morse High School in 1945. Patty married Sidney Dudley in 1952 and moved to Bath, Maine where she was a longtime resident. She loved making up her own silly jokes, singing funny songs, and penuchi fudge. She would spend hours wrapping Christmas presents with just the right bow and paper, each package a work of art. She loved the antics of Red Skelton, Carol Burnett, and shopping on QVC.  She loved Andy Williams’ version of Moon River and Frank Sinatra’s Fly Me To The Moon.

Patty loved gardening and was especially proud of her beautiful peonies, some of which she had transplanted and nurtured from her mother’s garden. She was unique, complicated, and endearing. She had a wonderful giggle and sense of humor even at the end of her life. She will be greatly missed by her family. 

Patricia is survived by three daughters, Cheryl Dudley, Cynthia D. Seaman and her husband Charles from New Hampshire, and Melanie Chicoria and her husband Robert from Brunswick.

Patty was also predeceased by several siblings; her brothers Mayland, Alpha, and Harland Booker, and two sisters Marilyn Genthner and Silvia Magno.
