Patricia Ann Mauser
South Union Township
Patricia Ann Mauser, 81, passed away peacefully Monday, April 6, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.
She was the beloved wife of Louis Mauser, with whom she shared 62 years of marriage. Together they built a life centered on love, family, and enduring commitment.
She was a devoted mother to Leslie (Brandon), Jason, and Jennifer (Jamie); and a deeply proud grandmother to Brittany, Andrew, Jacob, Benjamin, Anna, and Orion. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she loved them fiercely, always celebrating their accomplishments and sharing in their journeys.
Pat was known for her incredible strength. She will be remembered not only for her strength and love, but also for her sharp wit and unmistakable sense of humor that kept everyone on their toes. Throughout her life, she faced many physical challenges with resilience and determination, always continuing forward with quiet courage. Even through difficult seasons, she remained deeply connected to the people and simple joys that mattered most to her.
She found happiness in the little things – watching the birds, sitting with her cats, admiring flowers, and sharing special traditions with her family. She created lasting memories through those moments, whether it was time spent together during the holidays or simply sitting and enjoying the beauty around her.
She is survived by her sisters, Toni Thomas, Wilhelmina (Larry) Mandolesi, and Nancy Petro; along with many loving nieces, nephews, great- nieces, and great- nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Helen Thomas; and her brother-in- law, George Petro.
A private family gathering will be held at a later date, in keeping with her wishes for something small and intimate.
She will be deeply missed and forever loved.
