Patricia Louise Yanachik Wood, 61, of Carroll Township, passed peacefully Friday, February 1, 2019, surrounded by her loving family in Mon Valley Hospital, after a courageous battle with cancer.

Born March 25, 1957, to the late Michael and Anne Perecko Yanachik, Patti graduated in 1975 from Ringgold High School and attended California State College.

She married John Wood in 1982 and had three sons, the loves of her life. Among her many interests, Patti enjoyed picnics and family gatherings, art, gardening and animals, especially her birds, dogs and chickens. She will be remembered fondly for her love of children and supportive encouragement of them. She was previously employed at Hidden Treasures and more recently in home health care for the elderly.

In addition to her husband, Pat is survived by her beloved sons, Caleb, Damon (Jessica) and Elias, all of Monongahela; dear siblings Monica Bright, Tom Yanachik, Kathryn Greenwood, Jean (Ray) Ghilani and Carol (John) Howarth; her mother-in-law, June Elliott of Ocean City, Md.; 16 devoted nieces and nephews; numerous great-nieces and great-nephews; and many special cousins. She will be missed dearly by all.

Friends will be received in Marshall Marra Funeral Home, 216 Chess Street, Monongahela, 724-258-6767, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, February 6, at which time a memorial service will begin with a time of sharing memories by friends and family.
