Nancy Jane Patrick, 73, passed away Friday, July 8, 2016. She was born March 22, 1943, in Wilmette, Illinois, the daughter of Robert and Mary (Lewis) Thomas. She grew up in the Ft. Madison, Iowa area then relocated to Kansas City in 1961. She began her career at the Shawnee Mission Medical Center where she was a Dietary Supervisor. She received her Paralegal degree from Johnson County Community College in 1987. She retired after many years with the Johnson County District Attorney’s Office in the position of Warrant Officer. In retirement, Nancy volunteered with Compassionate Ear. She was an avid sports fan, enjoyed watching Wimbledon Tennis, KU Basketball, Kansas City Chiefs, and the KC Royals. She played racquetball and loved her animals.
Throughout the years, she enjoyed watching her children and grandchildren participate in their various activities. Nancy was spunky and always ready for the next adventure. There was never a dull moment with her brother and sister by her side . . . that Thomas laughter was legendary! She shared many happy times with her friends from the Good Samaritan Olathe Towers and loved spending time with the Wednesday Lunch Bunch girls. We will all miss her and her generous, loving spirit.
She was preceded in death by her parents. Family meant everything to Nancy, and her survivors include her son David E. Hootman (Kelly), and their children, Colby, Shelby and Jared. Daughter Tracy Hootman, and son Martin R. Patrick, Jr. (Lisa), and his children Christopher Reihle and Ashley Anderson. She also leaves her brother, Robert “Tom” Thomas Jr., sister, Ann Moeller (Brian), and numerous nieces and nephews.
