Patricia ‘Pat’ Edgin, 92, of Traverse City, MI, formerly of Oakdale, PA, passed away at French Manor Terra on April 29, 2026. Pat was born February 20, 1934, in Newton Hamilton, PA, daughter of James and Naomi (Irvin) Palmer. She was united in marriage to Clair E. Edgin on February 1, 1953, and enjoyed 56 years of marriage prior to his passing. Pat never missed an opportunity to go shopping and never found a yard sale she didn’t like. After relocating to Oakdale, PA in the early 1960s following Clair’s work with Mobil Oil, she became a state-certified Emergency Medical Technician, and at various times worked in security at Greater Pittsburgh Airport and at department store warehouses in the Pittsburgh area—for the employee discounts, of course. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband Clair; daughter-in-law Mary Ann Edgin; sisters Betty Reed, Joyce Bollinger, and Lois Hooper; and brother Thomas Palmer. She is survived by her son Gregory “Greg” Edgin of Bellaire, MI; grandchildren Joseph Maher- Edgin (Sarah) of Grandville, MI and Kathleen Krajewski (Nicholas) of Oakland, FL; great- grandchildren Camden, Noah, and Declan Edgin, and Kya and Owen Krajewski; sister Jeanne Rutherford; multiple nieces and nephews; and her favorite granddog, Golden Retriever Douglas (Big Butt) MacArthur. A viewing will be held Thursday, May 7, 2026, from 11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m., with a brief service to follow at Heath-Anderson Funeral Home, Mt. Union, PA. Pastor Faith Anderson, officiant. Interment will be held at Haven Rest Memorial Cemetery in Shirleysburg, PA. The family extends heartfelt thanks to Munson Hospice for making Pat’s final months comfortable, and especially to the staff of French Manor Terra, who lovingly cared for Pat — and put up with her antics—for four years in both assisted living and memory care. Her love for her caregivers was unmatched (despite some of the things she may have said), and she cherished every one of them. In lieu of flowers, the family invites donations to Leader Dogs for the Blind, in honor of career- changed Leader Dog Douglas MacArthur and his work as a therapy dog. Leader Dogs for the Blind, 1039 S. Rochester Road, Rochester Hills, MI 48307—or online at give.leaderdog.org. Please note both Pat Edgin’s name and Douglas MacArthur when giving.
