Patricia “Pat” G. Crowe, 67, of Cerulean, KY, passed away peacefully at her home on Monday, September 22, 2025, surrounded by her loving family after a brief, courageous battle with AML.
Born on January 23, 1958, in Russellville, KY, she was the beloved daughter of Paul Vaughan and Mae Dell Petigo Vaughan.
Patricia was the loving wife of Paul Crowe, her devoted husband of 41 years. Together they built a life filled with love, laughter, and cherished traditions.
Patricia dedicated many years of her life to caring for others as a nurse at Western State Hospital, where her kindness touched countless lives. At home, she poured that same love into her family, her garden, and her faithful dog Ava. She found joy in planting and tending her flowers, making her yard a place of beauty and peace.
Patricia especially loved celebrating holidays with her family. She made every occasion special with her warmth, her cooking, and her joy in being surrounded by the people she loved most.
She was preceded in death by her parents, her sister Paula Ezell, and her brother Frankie Vaughan.
She is survived by her husband Paul Crowe of Cerulean, KY; her children, Summer Johnston (David), Brooke Littlepage (Ethan), both of Trigg County, David Crowe (Donna) of Burna, KY, and Nathan Crowe (Lorna) of Cadiz, and her treasured grandchildren. She also leaves behind her brothers, Bryan Dell Vaughan (Dorothy) of Portland, TN and Benny Vaughan (Linda) of Lewisburg, KY.
Patricia will be remembered for her generous spirit, her devotion to family, and the many ways she made life brighter for everyone who knew her.
