Pat grew up in Quincy and graduated from Quincy High School in 1952. She lived in Hull for 62 years where she raised her six children with her former husband, Donald R. Vaillancourt, now deceased. She loved living near the ocean, going to the beach, gardening, and spending time with family, friends, and neighbors. She had a great sense of humor.

She is survived by her six children and their families: Steven Vaillancourt and his wife, Elizabeth, of Marshfield; Diane Richardi and her husband, Joseph, of Braintree; Robert Vaillancourt and his wife, Karen, of Millersville, Pa.; Patricia Quill and her husband, Jerry, of Boston; Peter Vaillancourt and his wife, Joy, of Riverview, Fla.; and James Vaillancourt, of Hull. She leaves 13 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.

The family would like to thank the kind and respectful attention of the Hull Fire Department for its many years of emergency service to Pat whenever it was needed. 
Donations in her name can be made to South Shore Elder Services of Braintree. The family will hold a private graveside service at a later date.
