Patricia Ann Stockman-Ream, 65, of Purcell, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully on October 27, 2025. She was born on October 24, 1960, in Allentown, Pennsylvania, to Jackie Lee Ream and Mary Margaret (Collins) Gwinn.
Patricia dedicated her life to caring for others. After completing her education and earning her associate's degree, she worked as a Medical Biller, Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), and Certified Medical Assistant (CMA). Much of her career was spent serving in nursing home facilities, where her compassion and work ethic touched the lives of many residents and coworkers. She also enjoyed helping with housekeeping and laundry services for several local nursing homes.
Patricia was partially retired at the time of her passing, continuing to work two to three days a week—a testament to her dedication and strong spirit.
Beyond her career, Patricia's greatest joy was her family. She loved her children and grandchildren deeply and cherished every moment spent at family gatherings, church events, and with her close friends. Known for her delicious goulash, Patricia's cooking often brought people together around the table.
Her family describes her as strong, independent, and feisty—a woman who spoke her mind and stood up for what she believed in. She taught her loved ones the importance of kindness, compassion, and good manners. Patricia believed that small acts of love and respect could make the biggest difference.
She leaves behind a legacy of love, strength, and integrity—values she instilled in everyone who knew her.
