Obituary of Patricia Clamage

Patricia (Margoles), Clamage passed away March 28, 2025. Born March 22, 1930 in Milwaukee, WI, she was preceded in death July 23, 1995, by her loving husband, Stan A. Clamage. She is survived by her three children, David J. Clamage of Denver, CO, Ronald L. Clamage, (April, of Chicago, IL, and Julie A. (Clamage) Richmeier, (Randall), of Holcomb, KS, as well as numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She made her home in Detroit, Ml, through 1968, then proudly called Denver, her home until passing. Pat, or Grandma Pat to many, had a multitude of passions. She was a gifted gardener and had a deft touch at the piano. Her schmaltz in the kitchen is where she was a true artist. Pat never met a stranger, often leaving an event or store with new friends, phone numbers, detailed life stories, and a bag to return. To know her was to love her and be loved by her. She was raw, real, and resilient. She loved fiercely, not withholding anything back, even if she should. You never had to question what she was thinking because she was sure to tell you. Few people can say the lived 95 years and even fewer can say they lived them like Pat Clamage did. A beloved mother, grandmother, and friend to many. A legacy never forgotten. In her remembrance, you too should make a new friend out of a stranger. It's what she would have done.
