Obituary for Patricia O. Grunenwald (O'Connell)

Patricia Grunenwald, a beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, friend, teacher, musician and long-time resident of Pleasantville and Somers, passed away Wednesday, May 25th, 2016. Pat is survived by her two sons, three daughters, seven grandchildren, and three great grandchildren.

Born April 3rd, 1928 in Pittsburg, PA, Pat dedicated most of her life to raising and teaching children. After receiving a Bachelor’s degree, she lovingly raised six children while devoting her evenings to classes. Pat earned two Master’s Degrees in Special Education while fulfilling her dream of educating first and second graders for 30 years at Bedford Road School in Pleasantville, NY.

Patricia’s interests included music and travel. An accomplished musician and singer, Patricia performed with the Cantata Singers Community Chorus and played recorder with classical concert groups. Thriving in retirement, Patricia traveled the world to exotic destinations from Russia to Machu Picchu. She also remained an active member of the community by volunteering at Heritage Hills Library.

Pat’s loving nature, humor, quick wit, masterful one-liners, and laughter will forever remain in our hearts.

In lieu of flowers, kindly send donations to Pleasantville Community Scholarship Fund.
