In Memory Of

Patricia M. Wills, Age 66, of Butte

March 27, 1955 – August 12, 2021

Patricia Wills (Farrell) was born in Butte, Montana, March 27, 1955 daughter to Robert and Betty Farrell. She passed away at the age of 66, on the morning of August 12, 2021. Pat grew up in Butte and moved away shortly after getting married to Daniel Wills on July 6, 1974.

Through the 47 years of their marriage, they traveled to many places. Pat enjoyed living in different places and meeting all the people along the way. One of her accomplishment was holding her family together while her husband was away serving his country. Her children and grandchildren were her pride and joy.

She is survived by her husband Daniel Wills, children Leeann Todd (Jason), Daniel Wills, grandchildren, Kelsee Todd, Brynn Todd, Sadie Wills, and Ryder Crothers-Wills, brother Robert Farrell (Jean), sister Colleen Brady, cousins, nieces, nephews and many lifelong friends. She was preceded in death by her parents.

    Pat was a wonderful lady with a beautiful soul! All she ever talked about with me was how proud she was of her family. She will be missed!

    Grew up with Patti and remained close friends. I was so blessed to have her in my life and will cherish all the wonderful and crazy memories of our time together. We shared childhood playtimes, teen adventures, young adult celebrations, and growing old complaints. Will miss that wonderful laugh and the wonderful hugs that always said I love you and am there for you. I have no doubt we will meet again. Till then I will miss you but also know you will be with me always. Love and prayers to all of her family and friends.

    So sorry to hear this. Pat was very sweet and loved everyone. She was always smiling and joking with whoever she was around. I’ll miss those things about her. There are few like her left in the world. My condolences to the family.

    I am so sorry to hear of Pats passing such a beautiful lady she was. Her family was everything to her. We had not seen each other in a long time but always in my thoughts. Prayers to her family she is in heaven now and will always be looking out for her family and friends. ❤️

    Oh Ms Pat, we built a friendship during your long stay at Copper Ridge. Sharing stories of children and your grandchildren. The hopes were high when you got your stint that your life would be given back to you. There was other plans for you and you were needed as a guardian angel to guide us all a long our way. You are no longer in any pain and have that new body I wanted to give you so badly to take all your pain away. I love you Pat until we meet again. Give them all one last “BIG PUSH” and smile BIG when you do it!!💞🤟

    Pat and I went to school together. We lost touch for many years and I got the chance to know her again, when we worked together at a casino. She helped me through tough times when my husband passed. She had such a kind heart and great laugh. I will miss her thoughts and picture posts. She loved her family. She will be greatly missed now, but we will meet again in the ever after.
