It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Patrick B. Sinner, on June 16, 2026, at the age of 86.
Patrick lived with Alzheimer’s disease for the past 16 years, facing its challenges with remarkable grace and dignity. Throughout his journey, he never lost the qualities that made him so dearly loved by family and friends. His loving nature, genuine kindness toward others, and unmistakable sense of humor remained with him until the very end. Even during difficult times, he continued to bring smiles, comfort, and warmth to those around him.
It was a joy and a privilege to be with Patrick. Although his journey has come to an end, he leaves behind countless wonderful memories, cherished moments, and funny stories that will be shared for years to come. His laughter, quick wit, and ability to find joy in everyday moments created lasting impressions on everyone who knew him.
Patrick is survived by his wife, Maria, who will love and miss him forever; his children, Stephen (Tracy) Sinner and Eva (John) Gallina; and his grandchildren, Claire Loretta, Grace Loretta, Declan Sinner, and Finn Sinner. He also leaves behind his bonus Gallina grandchildren: Dae, Brittany (fiancé Drake), Matthew (Victoria), Justin, and Emma.
He is also survived by his siblings, James (Patricia) Sinner, Michael (Teena) Sinner, and Joan (Tom) Kletzker; his sister-in-law, Cathy Sinner, wife of the late Dr. Bernard Sinner; as well as his nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends.
In accordance with his wishes, Patrick’s body was donated to Saint Louis University School of Medicine. A private Memorial Mass will be held at Nazareth Living Center Chapel at a later date.
His spirit will live on in the hearts of those he loved and who loved him in return.
A genuine gentleman who will always be remembered with thoughts that bring a smile to your face. Peace to Maria and Eva and Stephen.
I felt like I knew your dad through the beautiful and joyful stories you shared about him. It’s clear how much love you have for your parents, and I know how deeply you will miss your dad.
Please take comfort in knowing that he will always be watching over you and remain with you in spirit. Your mom is such a special lady, and I hope you can continue to find strength in one another during this difficult time.
My thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with you and your family.
Pat was a pleasure to work with. He was always 100 per cent, even if he wasn’t.
