Patricia Ann Starr

August 9, 1943 – April 29, 2025

Patricia Ann Starr, of The Villages, Florida, passed away on April 29, 2025, at The Villages Hospital. She was 81 years old.

Patricia was born on August 9, 1943, in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, and led a vibrant and meaningful life. She began her career as a flight attendant, later becoming a dedicated trade school professor. Her students absolutely loved her vibrant energy in the classroom. Known for her wild and wonderfully spirited personality, Patricia brought vitality, laughter, and a spark to every room she entered. Her zest for life was contagious, and she never missed an opportunity to enjoy the moment, whether it was dancing to Hip-Hop music,making quilts or spending time with family.

She enjoyed nature, whether it was spending time at the beach with the sound of waves in her ears or sitting peacefully in her backyard, listening to her wind chimes dancing in the breeze. Her love for animals, both big and small, reflected her kind and compassionate heart.

Patricia is survived by her loving husband of 50 years, John Starr, and her four daughters: Donna Radford, Stacy Whitehead, Kristen Thom, and Nicole Miranda. She was a proud grandmother to nine grandchildren and a great-grandmother to four.

Following her wishes, a private memorial service will be held.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Patricia’s memory to the Special Olympics or a wildlife conservation organization of your choice.
