Patricia Pollard Koch

In Loving Memory
Patricia Rose Pollard Koch January 11, 1929 – April 24, 2026

Patricia Rose Pollard Koch passed away peacefully on April 24, 2026. Born on
January 11, 1929, in Altoona, Pennsylvania, to Olive O’Keefe Pollard and Harold Pollard,
Patricia was the oldest of six siblings and lived a long, beautiful life filled with family,
laughter, and the simple joys she treasured most — days by the beach, the calming
sound of the ocean, a good book, a cheerful conversation over a glass of her favorite
scotch, and the joy of cooking for those she loved.

Throughout her life, Patricia embraced many passions. She took great pride in her long
and successful career as a realtor in Ohio, as well as in owning and operating her own
interior design company in South Florida. Her warmth, humor, and generous heart
touched everyone who knew her.

Patricia was preceded in death by her parents; her siblings Sue, Michael, Bonnie, Terry,
and David; her beloved daughter Mary Ann Koch; and her dear son Michael Koch.
She is survived by her daughter Bonnie Koch Aprile; her granddaughter Kelly (Tom)
Zywczyk; her grandsons Aaron (Loni) Williams, Matthew (Christina) Aprile, and Adam
Koch; and by her dearest and closest cousin Maggie (Doug) Cullen, along with her
children Kelly (Kurt) Armbrust and Brian (Colleen) Cullen.

Her family will remember her gentle heart, playful humor, and boundless love —
happiest when near the ocean and surrounded by those she cherished.

Private services will be held on 5/21/26 at St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery.
