Patricia Marylyn Harper, 74, was born Oct 6 ^th 1945 in Queens, NY and passed away Oct.1 ^st, 2020 at her home in Minerva OH.  She will be remembered always by all the many people whose lives she touched. Pat is survived by her husband David P. Harper; daughter, Peggy Albert (Alex); and son Luke Roth (Jenna).  She was born the youngest of four in St. Albans, Queens to William and Edna Raney, with loving siblings Billy, Kathleen (Sullivan), and Gertrude Raney.  Grandchildren Banner, Brynn, and Carsen Albert were her shining stars and she was always generous with gifts and guidance.  Nephews and nieces Rhett, Bryce, and Kyle (Alice) Harper brought constant joy and amusement to her. Pat's open heart and selflessness went beyond her immediate family.  She was someone who gave constant encouragement and attention to friends and family alike. The annual Thanksgiving celebrations were not to be missed!  It brought family and friends from all corners like Seattle, Florida, New York and the Middle East… and loving admonishment if you did not attend!  She and David's charity extended to the communities they lived in through food pantries, volunteering and serving on community boards and associations. She changed the lives of those around her, not in the least of which were the many animals she tended to and adored.  Her constant canine companions Billy and Tommy may have been at the top of that long list.  On either two legs or four if you found your way to the family farm, you may as well have won the lottery. Her heart was that big!  From the beginning to the end, and beyond, Pat Harper was an incredible wife, mother, friend, entrepreneur, cook, traveler, family psychologist and inspiration.  With Love forever.
