Patricia D. "Pat" (Glennon) Waldron

Patricia D. “Pat” (Glennon) Waldron, of Fairhaven, formerly of Wareham, died peacefully, surrounded by her family, in St. Luke’s Hospital, New Bedford, on Friday, November 22, 2024. She was 72.

Pat was born in Schenectady, New York, and was the daughter of the late Patrick J. Glennon III and his late wife Thelma (Moore) Glennon and the late Edith (Bowden) Smith and her late husband Frank “Ozzy” Smith.

Pat was raised and educated in Schenectady, New York. She attended the former St. John the Baptist Elementary, graduated from Mt. Pleasant High School, and continued her education at the former McIntosh College in Dover New Hampshire, where she earned her associates degree in travel service.

Pat’s career was vast and focused on the service of others. Her first job was working in the cash room of K-Mart. She rose within the company and achieved the position of store manager. Pat retired from K-Mart after 20 years of service. Following K-Mart, Pat delved into the travel industry. Pat later worked as a corporate travel agent, for several corporations in Portsmouth, New Hampshire and Boston until 2003. She developed a love for real estate, so Pat earned her real estate license and worked for various agencies in the Wareham, Marion, and Onset area. Pat’s most recent job was working as an office administrator for Paquette Associates of Wareham. Throughout her professional career, Pat loved working for Paquette Associates the most. She was always grateful for the support they showed her.

Pat loved to travel, so it was fitting for her to help other people travel the world as a travel agent. Culture and people were important to Pat, and she enjoyed seeing new places and experiencing new adventures. Her beloved Paris was certainly the place she loved to travel to the most. She also enjoyed traveling around the world to Aruba, the Caribbean, Europe, and Saratoga, New York for race week.

Pat loved animals, especially cats and birds. Having lived in many rural areas throughout her life, wildlife visiting in the backyard was always welcomed by her. In her later years, Pat enjoyed birding with her husband, Ed.

Pat was a quiet and reserved person, though she had a wonderful sense of humor and strong constitution. Pat’s lasting impression on the people who knew and loved her will be part of her legacy that continues through all the lives she touched.

Pat’s husband and family would like to extend their gratitude for all the care and support given to her. From the staff at South Coast Cancer Center in Fairhaven, Tobey and St. Luke’s Hospital staff and teams, ambulance first responders and her most recent employer. Pat’s family is sincerely grateful for your professional and tender support.

Pat was the beloved wife of Edward J. Waldron, with whom she shared 32 loving years. She was the aunt of Dustin Waldron of Medway, and Kaitlin Waldron of Los Angeles. Pat was the great-aunt of Riley, Mallori, and Brayden Waldron. She was the sister-in-law of Charles L. and his wife Kathleen (Coakley) Waldron of Medway. Pat is also survived by her adoring cat Gilford, and many loving extended family members and friends.
