Patricia Ann Schwager

Patricia Ann Schwager, age 89, of Charlotte, North Carolina, passed away peacefully on September 13, 2026.

Born on August 10, 1937, in Chicago, Illinois, to Jack and Albina Jerome, she lived a life dedicated to family and friends. She graduated from Farragut High School in 1955. She had a variety of jobs over her career, and eventually worked as a manufacturers' rep, the job she retired from.

She married Richard Schwager in 1955 and shared the next 60+ years with him, raising a family outside Chicago and eventually retiring with him in Phoenix, Arizona.

She and Rich spent many years remodeling 7+ homes together and still found the time for vacations traveling the country in a motorhome or trailer.

She is survived by her son, John (Deborah), and grandchildren Olivia and Sophie. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Richard, her sister Nancy, and her son Richard Jr. (Sue).
