Patricia Ann Bessler

Patricia Ann Bessler, "Patti" age 59 died Friday October 20, 2017 at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Michigan.

Patricia was born August 25, 1958 in Mount Clemens, Michigan the daughter of Frank Edward Karash and Cecelia (nee: Wiewiorkowski) Karash.

Following high school Patti continued her education, achieving an Associate's Degree. Patti worked within the healthcare field as a unit manager at a hospital. She and her husband also owned and operated their own limousine service before ultimately selling the business.

When Patti was not working she and her husband were avid and passionate travelers, having visited many places across four continents. Patti lived and planned her life around her next vacation destination. Her favorites destinations always involved the beach, sand, oceans, and the sun, combined with good times. Along the way she cherished her memories of the Caribbean and Mexico. When Patti set her mind to a task, whether it was her next vacation or while working, she was going to achieve her goal... the word "No" was not to be found in her vocabulary. She passed on her passion and tenacity to her children and family.

Family was paramount in Patti's life, only second to her love of her Siamese cats. She nurtured and taught the best human characteristics in her own way. Along the way Patti imparted many valuable lessons to her family and everyone she met. Patti believed that life should be celebrated, including all of life from birth to death. Her smile and shining personality will forever be missed.

Patti was the loving wife of Victor Bessler, and was the dear mother of Tammi (Ryan) Sowter, Tracy (Carl) Renaud, Brandon Bessler, and David (Lindsay) Bessler. She was the beloved daughter of Cecelia Karash, and sister of Frank Karash, and the late Cecelia Willis. Patti is also survived by five grandchildren, Gianna, Jacob, Lucas, Lydia, Maliyah, her niece Christine Mitchel, and nephews Larry Karash and John Hashem.
