Patricia Tabor

OBITUARY: PATRICIA M. (O'CLAIR) PRESBY-TABOR

Patricia Marilyn (O'Clair) Presby-Tabor, 75, of Nashua, passed away on Monday September 7, 2015 at the Lahey Clinic in Burlington MA following a long history of heart and respiratory problems.

Patty was born in Augusta, ME on October 9, 1939, a daughter of the late Walter and Leone (Cote) O'Clair.

Patty attended St. Mary's of Assumption School and Cony High School. She married the late Larry Presby in 1958. They had three beautiful children; Michele, Laurie and Larry. She was at her greatest peace and happiness when she attended Eucharistic Adoration at Corpus Christi Chapel. She was a communicant of St. Louis Church until she became ill. She is survived by her best friend and soulmate, in Christ, for the past 48 years, Arleen "Frenchie" Poulin. Frenchie was there for Patty as a devoted and loving companion, throughout the 48 years they were together. Patty was predeceased by her beloved daughter, Laurie Presby, on June 23, 2015 in Augusta, ME. This no doubt contributed to her giving up on her struggle with her health problems. She was also predeceased by her brother James O'Clair, who died in March of 2007, of Casselberry FL. James left behind a wife, Gail, a daughter, Deanna, and a son, Matthew.

Patricia is survived by:

One daughter; Michele Presby of Lakewood CA

One granddaughter; Cassandra Griffin and her husband Chris of Lithia FL

Five great-grandchildren; Jacob, Madison, Olivia and twins, Sophia and Scarlett of Lithia FL

Her sister, Gerri A. Toulouse of Manchester ME, a brother Walter C.
