Pokallus, Patricia A. (30 December 1961 – 22 December 2021)

Patricia A. Pokallus, 59, Spencer, passed away on Wednesday, December 22, 2021.

Patricia was born on December 30, 1961, in New Bedford, MA to Richard and Joan (McDougall) Rebone. Patty was a 1979 graduate of Marshfield Columbus High School.

She married Richard Pokallus on May 1, 1981, at St. John’s Catholic Church in Marshfield. While continuing her education at MSTC to become an R.N. in 2002, she became the 1st air and ground transport dispatcher for the new Spirit EMT service for Marshfield. Patty continued to work in the Healthcare field for 19 years until her retirement from the Marshfield Clinic in May 2021. She loved shopping, traveling, and most of all watching sunsets from the South Florida gulf beaches. But spending time with her husband, sons and seven grandchildren is what touched her heart and brought her the most joy.

Patty is survived by her husband, Rick, and their sons, Aaron Pokallus (Melissa) Schmitt) of Granton and Jason Pokallus of Spencer. She is also survived by grandchildren, Austin James, Addileana Lynn, and Anthony Ley Pokallus, Julian and Jordyn and Tully Rose and Gemma Grace Pokallus. She is further survived by her sister, Susan Schmitt and her husband Joseph Lashbrook of St. Petersburg, FL. She was preceded in death by her parents and brother Michael Rebone.

Private family services will be held at Rembs Funeral Home, Marshfield. Interment will be in Gate of Heaven Cemetery Columbarium, Marshfield.
