Patricia Anne Gawlik

July 17, 1924 - April 20, 2022

Gawlik, Patricia "Patsy" age 97, of Maple Grove, MN, passed away peacefully on April 20, 2022. She is survived by her children, Kathleen Sovell (Jerry), Dr. John Gawlik (Amy), and Patrice Andersen (Brad). She is also survived by her 16 grandchildren and 28 great- grandchildren. Pat was preceded in death by her husband Johnnie, her parents, and her seven siblings. Pat was born in St. Paul on July 17, 1924. She met her husband Johnnie in 1945 at the Prom Ballroom and they shared a beautiful, inspiring marriage filled with a deep and adoring love for almost 60 years. Pat was so proud of her family and they meant absolutely everything to her. She will forever be remembered for her infectious laugh, her impeccable style and class, her fondness of everything Irish and animal print, and her "Gawlik Gift of Gab." We know in our hearts that because of her faithfulness in Jesus Christ, Pat is in Heaven, elegantly dancing eternity away in her husband Johnnie's arms.
