Patricia E. Funk

July 15, 1942 - October 25, 2020

Patricia “Patti” Funk , 78, of Hudson, passed away unexpectedly on October 25, 2020 at Albany Medical Center. She was the daughter of Marian (Hodge) and Stephen Beecher. She is predeceased by her husband Ross and her sisters June Maisenbacher and Linda Meyers. Patti was born on July 15th 1942. She lived her entire life in Hudson NY and graduated from Hudson High School. Patti spent years working at the Columbia County DMV. When she retired and became “bored”, she worked part time at Shop Rite. She was a member of the Methodist Church for years, and a parishioner of the Baptist Church as well many years ago. Patti, (AKA Mom, Momma, and Nana), loved her family more than anything and lived to spend time with them. She is survived by her children Daniel Funk, and Rebecca (Funk) Marsh, grandchildren, Alexandra Funk, Catherine Marsh, and Carter Ferraro, siblings, Stephen Beecher, and Maureen Marzahl, and many nieces and nephews. Patti was known and loved by many. She was a Girl Scout leader for many, and a friend to all she met. She was an amazing cook (her apple turnovers and cheesecake were to die for), and liked to knit as well, making beautiful afghans. She was great at drawing and loved to sing songs. She knew every word every time. Alzheimer’s took so much from her, but that didn’t stop her from singing and being as sassy as ever. She will be missed by many. We are sure she’s catching up with many family and friends that left before her. Visitation hours at the Bates & Anderson Redmond & Keeler Funeral Home are Thursday October 29, from 11:00-1:00. Interment will be in Cedar Park Cemetery In Lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Alzheimers Association.
