Patricia Raith

August 4, 1936 — September 11, 2020

Hot Springs, Arkansas

Patricia Joyce Raith, 84, of Hot Springs passed away September 11, 2020 at UAMS with her children beside her.

She was born August 4, 1936 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Frank and Grace Wille. She is preceded in death by her parents, her sister Elsie Raunio, and her Brother Roger Wille.

She is survived by her husband Leo Raith of 64 years; son David Raith; daughter Tamara Koch and husband Patrick; two grandsons Michael Koch and wife Chelsea, and Daniel Koch; two sisters Joan VerHagen and husband Jim, and Kathy Nordin.

Pattie was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses on July, 10, 1946. She enjoyed meeting with her friends at the Kingdom Hall and talking to others about the Bible and God’s purpose for the earth. She especially loved her daily bible reading. An important scripture to her was Revelation 21:4,  “He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

Pattie was a person ready to help out anyone who needed it. She loved all her family and friends and was always ready to drop whatever she was doing  to visit if someone stopped by. For many years, she also enjoyed volunteering her time to assist in building and remodeling kingdom halls in Arkansas.

The nurses at UAMS remarked on the smile she always had no matter how badly she felt. The family sends a special thank you to Jamie, the night nurse who took such good care of her, as well as Kayle and Danielle.

Due to the Covid virus, a memorial service will be held via zoom on Saturday, September 26, 2020 at 2:00 pm., with Jason Stephens officiating. For more information contact Daniel Koch.
