Born in Westerly and known as “Pat”, she was the daughter of the late John and Veronica (Lynch) Mackay. Pat graduated from Immaculate Conception School and Westerly High School.

Pat was devoted to both her faith and her family and was always available to share her love and support. She enjoyed cooking and sharing her recipes. She especially valued the memories of family trips to Ireland. An avid fan of her beloved New York Yankees, Pat rarely missed a game on TV. Pat was kind, generous, funny and ready to welcome everyone with a smile.
Pat is survived by her brother Jim Mackay and sister-in-law Marion, and many nieces and nephews and their families. She was predeceased by her sister Kathleen, her brothers Jack and Bob, and, just a few days ago, by her sister Claire with whom she lived for her entire life.
The family wishes to thank the nurses and caregivers at The Westerly Health Center for the love and kindness they showed to Pat over the last few years.
