Patricia Powers

Epping - Patricia Powers, 65, of Epping, died Tuesday, August 26th, 2014, after a sudden illness. She was born in New York City on April 28, 1949 and was raised in Edison New Jersey. She was the older of two daughters to the late Benjamin and Mary (Ryan) Powers. Her former marriage to Clark Weeber of Galveston TX brought her only child, Dawn Marie into this world. She lived in New Jersey most of her life. She held many jobs to give her daughter the things she wanted and needed, but probably her favorite job was working at the nursery in Chesterfield, NJ. Her love for all things that grow was with her all her life. Her gardens were always admired by all. Her passion for horticulture will live on through her beautiful sister Joanne, and her loving only daughter Dawn Marie. Her love for gardening was seconded by her love for cats. Living in New Jersey farm country she had many opportunities to rescue stray cats and nurse them back to loving animals. She had always visited the New England Area through her life as her sister Joanne resides in Salisbury Mass., and her daughter Dawn resides in North Hampton. Her dream was to once live here to be close to her family and grandchildren. She finally moved to Epping in 2012 after the end of a very long battle with cancer that claimed her husband Bob Comins. Her love and dedication to him were something admired by all who knew them. Needless to say his passing left an open space in her heart which her surviving family tried to fill every day. And fill they did, she had some of her happiest times in Epping. She transformed her home from a fixer upper to a beautiful property with her gardening skills. She took many trips with her family and was rarely absent from sporting or school events of her grandchildren. She leaves behind her surviving family who will love and miss her every day of their lives: her daughter, Dawn Bailey and her husband Eric of North Hampton, grandchildren, Peyton, Kyle and Allison, her sister and best friend, Joanne O’Blenes and her husband Wayne of Salisbury Mass., and their children Graci, Sarah, and Matthew. She also leaves behind numerous friends from New Jersey and New Hampshire. Visiting hours will be from 6-8 P.M. Friday, August 29, 2014 at the Remick & Gendron Funeral Home-Crematory, 811 Lafayette Road, Hampton. Relatives and friends are respectfully invited. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the New Hampshire S.P.C.A., P. O. Box 196, Stratham, NH 03885.
