EAST SANDWICH — Patricia M. Hannon, 70, of East Sandwich, died on Friday, April 16, 2010, in hospice care after a brief yet heroic battle with cancer.
Born in Lewiston, Maine, Pat graduated from Lewiston High School. She attended Holy Ghost Hospital School of Nursing in Cambridge. Pat leaves behind her husband of 48 years, Robert Hannon; a son, Robert Jr. and his wife Kathryn of Marlborough, Conn.; a daughter, Julie and her husband William Curran of East Sandwich; and four grandchildren, Zachary and Sarah Hannon, and Aidan and Ryan Curran.
In 1982, Pat and her husband established Ice Cream Sandwich, a local Cape Cod landmark noted for its ice cream and the charming lady who treated every customer like her best friend. Beyond that, she treated all her employees over the years in such a nurturing manner that they frequently referred to her as their "second mother."
Pat served on the board of directors of the New England Ice Cream Restaurant Association (NECRA), holding the position of secretary for four years. Pat's work ethic, boundless energy, and enthusiasm for meeting new people were legendary. She loved shopping, socializing at the Carleton Shores Beach, spending time with her grandkids, traveling to over 40 countries around the world, or tailgating at BC football games. She touched the hearts of so many people she met along the way, especially youngsters.
She will be sorely missed by her legion of friends at Islandia, Jensen Beach, Fla., and especially the Cheney twins, Kiana and Zara.
The family would like to thank Susan deGruchy, nurse practitioner and Pat's guardian angel through this difficult period, and the caring, competent staff of the McCarthy Care Center in East Sandwich who provided comfort and support to her and her loved ones in the final stages of her illness.
Visiting hours will be held from 4 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 20, 2010, in Our Lady of Victory Church, 230 South Main St., Centerville. A funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Wednesday, in the church. Burial will be in Sandwich Town Cemetery.
Memorials in her memory may be made to McCarthy Care Center, 73 Service Road, Sandwich, MA 02537; or to caringbridge.org.
