Patricia Helena Fritsche

Patricia Helena Fritsche (Solek) passed away peacefully Friday, August 27^th, 2021 just 3 days shy of her 72^nd Birthday, August 30^th, 1949.  Born in Detroit, MI

of parents Walter F. Solek & Antoinette Solek (Niemic).  Brother, Walter & Sisters Elaine and Shirley have preceded Pat in death.

Pat worked as an Executive Secretary for some years before meeting and marrying Thomas D. Fritsche (deceased) on February 1, 1986.  They made their home

on Indianapolis’ Northeast side.  She enjoyed writing poetry, attending symposiums/conventions, and being published several times.  Pat adored her dogs,

Jeannie, Boo-Boo, and Lemon Drop but especially her beloved cat, Smoke.  Smoke was a feral rescue and was a source of pride for Pat.  Smoke has a new

forever home just a couple of miles from her condo with the help of her wonderful neighbors!

Pat is survived by her nephews, Christopher Solek, Daniel Fritsche, Michael Fritsche, and nieces Joanna Fritsche, Melissa Fritsche, and April Eagan.

Joanne Solek (Walter), & Mary Fritsche (David) are her sister-in-laws.
