It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Patricia “Patty” Michele Dumas, who, with her husband at her side, departed this life on May 1, 2023, at the age of 78.

She also served as former President of St. Robert Bellarmine Church Guild and as the Area Director of AFS, where she made a significant impact on the lives of countless foreign exchange students and their families. Over the years, her and Frank opened their home to exchange students, Michelo, Felipe, Nick, Pablo, and Rodrigo, who continue to be part of the family.
Patty was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, who was always there to support her family. She attended and assisted with all of her children’s many activities. Whether it was a soccer game, a dance recital, or helping the kids deliver newspapers, Patty was always there lending support and encouragement. She was a constant presence in her granddaughter Keira’s life, cheering her on in both school and sports. She was so very proud of her “Button’s” accomplishments. Her unwavering love and support will be deeply missed.
