It is with great sadness that we announce the death of our beloved mother, Patricia Woolf. Patricia passed away on February 23, 2020, due to complications from a medical procedure. Mom meant the world to us, and we can’t imagine living without her loving arms, her laugh, east coast vernacular, and her smiling face.
Pat married Vet R. Woolf in 1963 in Indian Orchard, and then they moved to the Rigby/Idaho Falls area. Mom worked many years as a paralegal, helping to manage the law offices of Gene Bush, John Sharp, and Dennis Olson. She also was a legal instructor at East Idaho Vocational School, where her students loved her.
If you were lucky enough to know Pat, you knew a very gentle, loving, caring soul who had a wicked sense of humor. Her faith was unshakeable and so was her love for her friends, her children, her grandchildren, and her cat, Cleo.
Pat is survived by her son, Vet (Susan) Woolf; her daughter, Stephanie Woolf; her younger brother, Robert T. Murphy; and her grandchildren, Ian (Teal) Woolf, Brittney (John) Kucera, Madeline Taylor, and Sophie Morton. She was preceded in death by her husband, Vet R. Woolf; her parents, John and Irene Murphy; and her older brother, Edward Murphy.
Vet and Stephanie would like to thank the doctors and nurses at East Idaho Regional Medical Center and Idaho Heart Institute. Dr. Brian Jones and Dr. J. F. Schmutz, thank you for your help to keep mom alive until Last Rites could be given. Thank you for your kindness and caring after her unexpected death.
