Patricia Ann Hamers

Coupeville. Passed away Sunday, April 12, 2015.

Born in Chicago March 2, 1931, to John and Beatrice Moseley, the baby of six children.

We are her children: Valerie, Nancy and David. We are her grandchildren: Chandler, Alexa and Makenna, all from her marriage to Benedict Kokosz. We are Chris and Laine, her “other” children by marriage, as surely as if we were her own. She was Mom. She was Grandma. She was brave, funny, unique, proud, steadfast and unfaltering in her love for us all, each of us.

She was a great friend and dearly loved her friends and her life on Whidbey Island. She loved her God and savior and we comfort ourselves knowing that she is safely with Him and all those she loved that went before.

The service will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 25, at Visser Funeral Home, Langley, Wash. Reception will follow. Graveside service will be at 1 p.m. at Sunnyside Cemetery, Coupeville, Wash.

In her memory, in lieu of flowers, we request that any donations be made to WAIF, a no-kill shelter that cares for and finds homes for abandoned animals. She loved animals and we think that’s what she would like. (WAIF Animal Shelter, 20168 WA-20, Coupeville, WA 98239)

We celebrate her. Mom, you will be forever missed and never forgotten. How we love you!
