IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Patricia
Albritton
May 10, 1944 – February 2, 2018
Obituary
Almighty God in His wise way removed from this life the soul of Ms. Patricia Ward Albritton on February 2, 2018 at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia.
Patricia was born in Albany, Georgia to the late Mr. Richard Ward, Sr. and Mrs. Josephine Ward on May 9, 1944. She was preceded in death by her siblings: Cordell Butler, James Spry, & Mary D. Williams.
She accepted Christ as her personal savior at an early age and joined Hopewell Missionary Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia. She remained a faithful member of Hopewell Missionary Baptist Church where she served as an usher for several decades. She was educated in the Dougherty County School System and a 1964 graduate of Monroe Comprehensive High School. She initiated her working career as an employee of MacGregor Golf Company, where she later retired. Following her retirement at MacGregor Golf, she worked as a Home Health Technician. Patricia later transitioned into a civilian position at the Marine Corps Logistic Base where she retired in 2013.
After several months of enjoying retirement, she devoted herself to spending more time leisurely. She took pleasure in spending time family and friends, gardening, and cooking. She was always willing to travel and go shopping. Of all her new found activities, it was no secret she was always prepared to visit a fishing pond. She incorporated her caring responsibility for others by providing personal assistance for the elderly.
Ms. Albritton leaves to cherish her memories: a mother, Josephine Butler Ward of Albany, GA; two children: Kawajalein L. Whitaker of Snellville, GA and Kanazawa K. (Robin) Albritton of Albany. GA; three grandchildren: Erica L. Whitaker, Eric D. Whitaker, II, Kanazawa Tyler Albritton; two great grand-children: Kyndall and Byson M. Whitaker of Snellville, GA; two sisters: Gwendolyn Ward and Jackie Warren of Albany, GA; three brothers: Richard Ward, III, Willie Ward, and Dewayne Cheatem (Detrice) of Albany, GA and a devoted companion: Dea. Willie James Hall (Honey); and a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and other relatives and friends.
