Patricia Grace DiCecco, age 86, of North Providence, passed away peacefully on February 9th surrounded by family. Born to Alphonse and Mary (Kwiatkowski) Genaitis, she is survived by her husband Richard, sister Vivian Forsberg, daughters Terri DiCecco and Patti Palumbo, her favorite son-in-law Michael Palumbo, her grandson Michael DiIorio and his longtime partner Melissa Halajko, grandson Anthony DiIorio and his wife Ali Philbrick DiIorio, great-grandsons Austin DiIorio and Adam DiIorio, and her kitty Brady.

She took great joy and pleasure in her family, all of her dogs and cats throughout the years, food and cooking, knitting and crocheting, British TV dramas, arts and crafts, feeding and watching the birds, bunnies, squirrels and chipmonks in her yard of treasured plants, flowers, and weeds, and especially wielding her rath at Mikey for mowing them down. She was loved and will be missed.
