The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Patricia Diane Leid, lifelong Dayton area resident, passed away Sunday, October 3, 2021 at the Booker Rest Home in Dayton, where she had made her home for the last ten years. A graveside service for family and friends will be in the Waitsburg Cemetery on Saturday, October 9, 2021 at 1:00 PM. Pastor Greg Brownell will officiate.

Pat was born September 23, 1932 in Dayton, Washington to Roy and Mattie Sanders Woodworth; the youngest of three in the family. She had two older brothers, Clyde and Wallace. Pat graduated from Dayton High School in 1950. She met Mickey Leid on a blind date. They married on September 2, 1950. Pat and Mickey made their home in Huntsville. They started a family and Pat was very happy and content as a mom and homemaker; raising their three kids. She was an excellent cook and liked to bake. Friends and family especially enjoyed her Christmas cookies and potato salad. She also enjoyed hosting many holiday meals over the years. She liked to go snowmobiling, dancing, and playing bingo. Cats were Pat’s hobby and she loved raising and caring for them. Pat thoroughly enjoyed babysitting her grandkids.

She is survived by her son Greg and his wife Joan of Waitsburg, daughter Cheryl Leid of Grandview, WA., and daughter Cynthia and her husband John Antony of Galesville, Wisconsin; by two grandchildren of whom she was so proud, Jamie Katoff and Matt Leid; and by 3 great-grandchildren, Kayda, Elijah and Noah. She was preceded in death by her husband Mickey, by a granddaughter Sara, her great-grandchild Tanner and by her brothers, Clyde and Wallace.

Thank you to Dr. Terry and all the staff at Booker Rest Home who loved and cared for her these last few years.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial gifts be made to The Walla Walla Humane Society or Hospice in her memory. Hubbard-Rogg Funeral Home in Dayton is in charge of the arrangements.
