Patricia M. Ferran

WATERVILLE – Patricia M. Ferran, 70, passed away on June 9, 2025, at Woodlands Senior Living in Waterville, due to complications associated with Multiple Sclerosis.

Patricia was born on April 11, 1955, daughter of Herbert J and Genevieve E (Ireland) Ferran, growing up in North Vassalboro. She graduated high school from Mount Merici Academy in Waterville in 1974. She was employed at Maine General Hospital in Waterville until 2005.

Patti was a great sister, aunt, godmother, sister-in-law, and friend. She took great pride in her nieces and nephews and talked about them with praise to friends and co-workers. Sport achievements, religious milestones or simple family gatherings held a special place in her heart. Christmas gatherings were always a time of celebration and laughter. She was always up for a good card game, board game, badminton match or long telephone conversation.

In her later years, Patti was known for her different sayings that we refer to as Patty-isms. All that and a bag of corn chips, I like chocolate, hey kid, where is my hug? Mama said there would be days like this but so many? She certainly was a hoot but through it all she never complained and remained grateful for the help she received from others. Rest easy sunshine.

Patti is survived by her brother Richard and his children Joshua, Angela and Shawn; her sister, Valerie (Joseph) Collins and her son Andrew Ferran; her brother Herbert (Mary Arsenault) and their children Ryan, Kristy and Michael; her sister, Pamela (Stephen) Perro; and a special friend Pat Crockett.

Patti was predeceased by her parents as well as her best friend and partner, Anthony Pooler in 2017.

The family would like to thank the staff at Woodlands Memory Care, Waterville and Andwell Health Partners, Lewiston, for the compassionate hospice care they provided.

For those wishing to offer condolences, visitation will be held at Veilleux-Redington-Lawry Brothers Funeral Home, 8 Elm Street, Waterville, Thursday, June 19, 2025, 12-2 p.m. A memorial service will be at 2 p.m., followed by interment at the North Vassalboro Village Cemetery on Cemetery Street in North Vassalboro. Public is welcome.
