Brigham, patricia 12/8/1931 - 4/12/2023 Kalamazoo Pat Brigham passed away peacefully after a brief stay at Kyoris House in Kalamazoo. Patricia Lee Brigham was born to Sybil and Frank Harbour on Dec 8, 1931 in Kalamazoo. She grew up in the West Main Hill area and then moved to the Eastwood neighborhood for over 75 years. She graduated from Kalamazoo Central in 1950. Later that year she went to a dance at Fort Custer where she met the only true love of her life, Gordon Brigham. They dated and were married on May 4, 1951. They had three children Jeff, Lorri, and Nancy. Nancy is married to Rick Atkins, whom Pat always considered her second son. She was blessed with 5 grandchildren and 12 great-grand children who were all the light of her life in later years. Pat had a love of crossword puzzles, reading the paper on her front porch, celebrating Sunday birthday dinners with her family, bingo, casinos, lottery tickets, playing cards, and watching Jeopardy on TV. She enjoyed chili, ice cream, leftovers from Sunday dinners and weekly lunches with Jeff and Lorri. Pat has been cremated and a memorial service will be announced at a later date. The family wishes any donations be made to the Kyoris House in Kalamazoo. May perpetual light shine upon her.
