Rajski, Patricia A. (Simon)Patricia A. (Simon) Rajski, 89 of Scottsdale, AZ passed away peacefully on September 15, 2017. Patricia (Pat) was born on April 11, 1928 in Port Edwards, WI to Carl and Elizabeth Simon, and was raised in Wisconsin Rapids until her marriage to husband Pat A. Rajski on August 21, 1947. She is survived by her children, Peter, Paul (Cynthia Schulist), Peggy (Paul Colin), Patti (Paul Cleary), Mary (Jeff Gorski), Chris, and Scott (Tina), 21 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband Pat, and children Pamela, Patrick and Laurie Ann and great grandson Bronson, her parents, brother John (Jack) and sister Elizabeth (Betsy). Pat was a beloved and dedicated mother and homemaker, living and raising her 10 children in Stevens Point, WI. Shortly after her husband's death in 1988, Pat retired to Las Vegas and remained there for 25 years until her move to Scottsdale, AZ for the remaining 4 years of her life. She was a woman of many passions—first and foremost her beloved Green Bay Packers, as well as professional tennis and golf. She loved games and was a world class card player, missing no opportunity to lure family members into a friendly game of poker then wallop them with superior play. Despite frequent defeat, her children happily inherited her zeal for Blackjack, Texas HoldEm and the joy of competition. An avid reader, she spent many hours a week engrossed in a novel on her iPad, which was never far from her side. She adapted to new technology, binge watching Netflix, and keeping up with the kids and grandkids on Facebook. She enjoyed music, relished a good meal, never tired of Top Chef, and enjoyed a good laugh. Pat was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend. She will be incredibly missed. A memorial was held in Scottsdale, AZ on September 21, 2017 at Manor Village of Scottsdale, her place of residence, where her friends gathered to celebrate and toast her life. A private family memorial service will be held on Saturday, October 7, 2017 in Stevens Point, WI followed by a celebration of her life at the Sky Club Restaurant from 1:30 - 3:30 pm where friends of Pat and her family are welcome to join in the sharing of stories, lives and laughter. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Foundation (CLL Foundation).
