Pat Volmar, loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend, passed away peacefully on Friday, June 30, 2006 at the Northwest Ohio Hospice in South Toledo after a losing battle with lung cancer. Born October 10, 1928 to Albert and Mabel Munroe in Detroit, Michigan, Pat graduated from Cooley High School and attended Hillsdale College. She worked for United Air Lines and then met and married Joseph (Joe) Volmar in 1953 and he survives.

She was very active volunteering for the Thrift Shop Association of Monroe.

Pat dearly loved her family (especially her grandchildren and great grandchildren), many friends, her kitty cats, Hollywood trivia and old movies along with her passion for crossword puzzles.
