Patricia was born in Derby on July 2, 1945, daughter of the late John and Merle Wilson Flaherty and sister of the late Jack Flaherty. She was a resident of Shelton for most of her life.
She started her career at Star Pin and then took a position at Better Packages where she worked for many years until her retirement. She had an impeccable work ethic having raised her two children on her own. After retirement Pat moved to Arizona where she has lived for 10 years.

She is survived by her loving children Kimberly Tagg (Fred), Kevin Hazlett (Yvonne), her grandchildren Freddie, Sarah, Matthew, Kayla and Kevin, Jr. Her sister Kathleen DeLis (Bruce) her niece and nephew Jenny Mathis (Kevin) and Joe Merto and several other nieces and nephews.
Patty was blessed to have Gus and Cathy Micci as two of the most dearest friends who always extended their love and support throughout her life, to whom the family will always be grateful.
To sum up her life in a few sentences would be an injustice to a women who was genuinely, charming, and friendly and had the ability to light up any room with her presence.
