Patricia J. Wagner (Miller/Farwick), age 90, went home to her Lord and Savior whom she served faithfully all of her life, on Thursday, September 26, 2024. She was born in Canton, OH on October 5, 1933 to the late Joseph and Grace (Riley) Farwick. She was a dedicated mother of three children, whom she devoted her life to raising with love and care. She had six grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren who loved and adored their grandmother. Coming from a big family of eight siblings, she had many nieces and nephews who would affectionately address her as my favorite aunt Pat. She was always very generous, fun-loving and kindhearted. Laughing and teasing everyone she knew was a way of life with Pat.
As much as she loved her family and friends, she also had a passion for Polka music and dancing. There was never a dull moment at family gatherings, knowing a funny joke or Polka Dancing could break out at any time and she would fill the room with excitement and joy.
Pat was preceded in death by her eldest son, Russell “Rusty” L. Miller, Jr. She is survived by her daughter, Sandy (Mike) Machamer; her son, Terry (Lisa) Miller; grandchildren, Audrey Miller, Gretchen (Patrick) Wendell, Marijo (Max) Sherrill, Jacob (Jillian) Machamer, Austin Miller and Brennan Miller.
Funeral services will be held 11am Thursday (10/3) at Stier-Israel Funeral Home in Louisville. Calling hours will be 10-11am Thursday morning at the funeral home. Pat will be laid to rest in Sunset Hills Memory Garden, Canton, OH. Online condolences may be left for the family at www.stierisraelfuneralhome.com
