Patricia Stegner Obituary

Patricia Joy Stegner, 96, of Fort Collins, CO passed away peacefully on May 31, 2025. Pat was a beacon of kindness, deeply loved by all who knew her. She loved to craft, read, dance, travel, and spend time with her family. Although she liked being outdoors for any reason, she enjoyed gardening and birdwatching most.

Pat was born in Phillips, WI on April 11, 1929 to Jessie Easton Frank and Frederick Frank. She ventured west to Phoenix at 18 where she married Willard "Bill" Stegner. She worked for many years as a nurse for Mercy Hospital in Durango and Little Sisters of the Poor in Denver.

Above all, Pat loved her family. She was preceded in death by her parents, five brothers, two sisters, husband, son, Daniel, and dear friend Jerry Warren. She is survived by her children Steven (Donna), John (DeAnne), Philip (Laurie), and Susan Shields (Don); her grandchildren Peter, Ben, Eric, Rachel, Fiona, Ian, Aidan, Andre, Pat, and Chris; and her nine great grandchildren.

A memorial service will be held at Peace with Christ Lutheran Church in Fort Collins on Saturday, June 21st at 1pm. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Gardens on Spring Creek. Visit https://www.goesfuneralcare.com/obituaries/ for the full obituary.
