Patricia Ann Mandigo

Patricia (Pat) Ann Mandigo, of Kalamazoo passed away on Monday, May 2, 2022, at the age of 78. Patricia was born on November 19, 1943, in Kalamazoo, Michigan. She was the daughter of Howard Bowersox and Hilda (Cook) Brooks.

Patricia enjoyed reading (potentially Stephen King’s biggest fan), watching old movies, listening to music, being with family, spending time outdoors and fishing.  She also had a great love of animals and a passion for chocolate (particularly M&Ms).  Above all else she loved to laugh.

Patricia is survived by her daughter, Pam (Jeff) Newlun of Kalamazoo and two sons, Kim (Linda) Mandigo of Gobles and Byron (Amanda) Mandigo of Schoolcraft.  She is also survived by her brother, Ron (Martha) Bowersox of Adrian and her sister, Barb Niles of Kalamazoo and many grandchildren, great-grandchildren and nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her father, Howard Bowersox, her mother, Hilda (Cook) Brooks, and her stepfather, Herbert Brooks.

Per her request cremation has taken place.  A celebration of life will be scheduled at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to Rose Arbor Hospice, 5473 Croyden Ave., Kalamazoo, MI 49009, where she was taken great care of in her final days.
