Obituary of Patricia M. Civita
Patricia Marie Civita
October 30, 1932 – January 26, 2025
It is with heavy heart that we announce the passing of Patricia Marie Civita on January 26, 2025, at the age of 92. A lifelong resident of Forest Hills, Patricia found joy in the beauty of her neighborhood, where she spent countless days strolling its familiar streets.
Patricia was Ben's beloved wife for fifty-three wonderful years. She was a devoted mother to her three children, James, Linda, and John, mother-in-law to Joey, Ellen, and Alyson, and a cherished Nana to her grandchildren, Caren, Shaun, John, Lauren, Stephaine, David, Michael, Grey, Eli, and Remi, and Great Nana to, Andraia, Jace, Callie, Cole, Ella, Raymond and Roman. She shared her boundless love with all her siblings, godchildren, nieces, nephews, every member of her family, and the friends who became her family along the way, creating a legacy of warmth and care.
To say Patricia was a beautiful soul hardly captures her essence. She was pure sunshine, a force of goodness, and a radiant presence whose smile lit up every room she entered. Patricia’s kindness and joyful spirit touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
Family was Patricia’s greatest joy, but she also embraced life with a passion for singing and dancing in her younger years, cherishing every opportunity to celebrate and create memories. She looked back fondly on her career in banking, a chapter of her life that brought her great pride and purpose.
Patricia will be deeply missed and forever remembered for the love, laughter, and light she brought into the world. Her family takes comfort in knowing her legacy lives on through the countless lives she touched.
