Patricia M. Hering “Patti” age 69 years young peacefully passed away on December 4, 2021, at Regions Hospital in St. Paul.

Patti was born on February 18, 1952, in St. Paul, MN, to Vernon and Violet (Baciak) Doyle. She graduated from Murray High School (Hill Murray). In 1972 at the age of 20, Patti married Robert Hering and together they had three wonderful children. Although later divorced, Patti remained living in Stillwater, MN for 32 years before moving to Hudson, WI.

Patti will be remembered for her loving heart to all, quick smile, best random silly gifts, love of her five grandsons, her children and their spouses, as well as her friends and customers at County Market over the years. Her enjoyment of laughter and fun, cake at every event, acting silly with kids, a generous and helping hand, and a constant reminder to “count your positives” was what she enjoyed most. She was forever a kid at heart enjoying bingo with friends, watching car races and demolition derbies, attending old car shows, parades, sitting by the river in the sun, and her love of Elvis and his music.

Patti is preceded in death by her parents and an infant niece. She will be deeply missed and survived by her children: Kim (Mike) Johnson, Jason (Sarah) Hering, and Dawn (Toby) Thorn; her grandsons: Adam Johnson, Tyler & Tanner Hering, and Jacob & Ben Thorn; her siblings: Mary Jo (Jim) Blood, Mike (Marie) Doyle, and Carol (Mark) Celmins; along with many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
