Patricia E. (Tener) Rowell of Taunton passed away on Saturday, July 10, 2021 at age 63. Born in Beaver Falls, PA, Patricia was tenacious and always knew what she wanted. She showered everyone she met with kindness and generosity and she was very aware of other’s needs. Patricia instilled her kindness and generosity in her children who recall a time from when they were young in the grocery store, and Patricia noticed that the person in front of her needed help and she paid for their groceries. She told her sons that she “didn’t have a lot”, but she was “in a position to help others.” Patricia was a very God loving person. She was a very loving and supportive wife who loved her children, grandchildren, and her two dogs Starla and Zephyr. She enjoyed camping, reading, and riding her bike. Patricia was very outgoing and enjoyed time with friends.
