Patricia A. Hufnagel

Patricia A. Hufnagel, aged 64, passed away peacefully on March 29, 2025, in her cherished home in Napanoch, NY, with her devoted husband, Edward J. Hufnagel, by her side. Born on July 26, 1960, in Ellenville, NY, she was the daughter of Fannie Emrick Rose and the late Robert Rose.

A proud graduate of Ellenville High School, Pat dedicated 28 years to serving as a teacher's aide in the TriValley school district. Her passion for education and unwavering commitment to nurturing young minds made a lasting impact on many students she encountered throughout her career.

Pat was a voracious reader with a deep appreciation for literature, often losing herself in the pages of a good book. She also had a passion for traveling and enjoyed birdwatching, hobbies that enriched her life and allowed her to connect with the beauty of the world around her.

In addition to her husband, Pat is survived by her mother, Fannie Rose; her sons, Daniel Curry, Thomas Curry, and Donald Curry; her stepson, Edward J. Champion; her sisters, Barbara Slater and Mary Greene; her brothers, Robert Rose and Arthur Rose; as well as her beloved grandchildren: Kayden, Keegan, Elise, Nathan, and Thomas Curry, along with her step-granddaughter, Sophia Staesser.

In accordance with Pat’s wishes, there will be no services held. For those who wish to honor her memory, memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society.
