YOUNGSTOWN – Patricia Ann Mountford, 83, passed away peacefully on Monday, May 9, 2022, surrounded by her family at Hospice House in Poland.

She was born October 25, 1938 in Youngstown, the fourth of nine children, to Stanley and Catherine Sonoga Venosky.

Patti was the most amazing, beautiful, selfless and humble soul to walk the Earth. His children adored him. She was even chosen as mother of the year in 1995 by The Vindicator. She was devoted to her family, instilling many life lessons in her children, which were then passed down through three generations.

Patti was incredibly proud of her family; she loved all of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They were her life and she always cared about their well-being.

She graduated from Wilson High School in Youngstown. Very early on, she taught dance at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio. She started her career as a beautician for Goldie’s Beauty Salon and then had her own beauty salon for many years. Patti also taught at the Choffin Career Center. She then moved into home health care, where she developed personal relationships with all of her clients. After her retirement, she spent her time working at Maplecrest Nursing Home and then at the Fireplace Restaurant, doing what she loved most, cooking.

It belonged to the churches of Saint Christine and Saint Matthias. She was strong in her Catholic faith and recited her Rosary every day.

Over the years, she was an avid bowler, gardener and canner. She loved baking and cooking, a passion that led her to catering for many years. She also loved elephants; she always said they brought her luck, which she needed when she went to the casino or when she played her daily lottery.
