Patty Williams

Patty Williams, a cherished wife, mother, sister, and friend, left this world on October 10, 2025, in her hometown of Toledo, Ohio, at the age of 60. Born on April 12, 1965, she embraced life with a goofy and fun-loving spirit, casting a light of joy upon everyone she encountered.

Patty dedicated 37 years of her life to ProMedica, where she worked in various departments, notably spending the last several years in the billing department. A proud graduate of Woodward High School, Patty further pursued her education by attending business school, laying the groundwork for a purposeful career. Those who knew her can attest to her vibrant personality—she had a way of spreading happiness and warmth wherever she went.

In her personal life, Patty's heart was full with her beloved husband, Keith Williams, who shared with her many cherished moments, including camping adventures filled with laughter under the stars. Their bond was a testament to true companionship, a relationship built on love, trust, and shared dreams.

Patty's passion for baking was evident; she found joy in creating delightful treats and reveling in baking shows. Her creativity extended to quilting, sewing, and attending craft shows, where she could explore her artistic side. Likewise, she embraced the thrill of chance, often trying her luck with lottery tickets, bringing a touch of excitement into her daily routines.

Patty was a proud and loving mother to her son, Jeffrey Merrill, nurturing him with affection and guidance throughout his life. Her family connections were deepened by her relationships with her sisters, Leola Wetzel and Gloria Merrill, as well as her brothers, Raymond and Ronald Merrill. Patty treasured her nieces and nephews, including Nichole (Steve) Miller, Joseph (Abigail) Wetzel, Chris Williams, and many other special young ones who filled her heart with pride. She also held dear her brother-in-law Sonny and sisters-in-law Carol and Sally, were integral parts of her family tapestry. Patty’s joy extended beyond family, touching the hearts of many friends and coworkers who will miss her dearly.

Though she is preceded in death by her parents, Raymond and Leola Merrill, and her in-laws: Harold and Beatrice Williams, her spirit remains alive in the countless lives she influenced with love and laughter. Patty Williams will forever be remembered for her kindness, her zest for life, and the beautiful legacy she leaves behind in the hearts of those who had the pleasure of knowing her.
