Patricia L. Kammerzelt, age 76, went to be with her Lord on Thursday, September 19, 2019 at Sharon S. Richardson Community Hospice.
Patricia was born in Sheboygan on September 9, 1943 in Sheboygan, the daughter of LeRoy and Florence (nee Koehn) Hacker. Her mother later married Charles Dillman who together raised her and her siblings. She attended local schools and was part of the first graduating class from South High School in 1961.
On June 29, 1963 Patricia was united in marriage with Robert Kammerzelt at Our Savior Lutheran Church in Sheboygan. He preceded her in death May 2, 2018. Patricia was a dedicated, 30 year employee of the Sheboygan Area School District where she was the head custodian until her retirement in 2003.
Patricia loved to cook and entertain her family and friends. She enjoyed bird watching, trips up north with the girls, shopping with her daughter, playing cribbage and spending time with Robert on the golf course and at their condo. She will be remembered for her awesome sense of humor and being an amazing mom and grandmother. Spending time with her family and visits with the granddogs were some of the most precious things to Patricia. The memories made with her will always be treasured and never be forgotten.
