Patricia "Patti" Ann
Shoemake
Apr 20, 1960 — Sep 6, 2026
Red Boiling Springs
Patricia "Patti"Ann Shoemake(LiVolsi) April 20, 1960 - September 6, 2026 Patricia "Patti"Ann Shoemake (LiVolsi) passed away peacefully on September 6, 2026, at the age of 66. Born on April 20, 1960, in Trenton, New Jersey, Patti eventually made her home in Red Boiling Springs, Tennessee.
Patti was a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend whose life touched countless people in her own special way. She had a way of leaving a piece of herself with everyone she met, and she will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving her. Nothing brought Patti more joy than spending time with her grandchildren. She loved playing with them, making memories with them, and simply being their grandmother. Her grandchildren held a very special place in her heart: Wyatt, Morgan, Lilly, and Jaxson.
Patti also had an undeniable love for her dogs, who were an important part of her life and brought her endless happiness and companionship. She had a deep love for music as well, and some of her family's most treasured memories were made with music playing in the background. Although she made her home in Tennessee, Patti never lost her connection to her New Jersey roots. One of her favorite places - and her ultimate "whoosah" - was the Jersey Shore. Those memories of the shore will remain a special part of the lives of those who loved her.
Patti is survived by her three daughters, Christina Goolsby; Jamie Sommerville (Danny Vick); and Chelsea Shoemake (Kamdyn Gregory); her grandchildren, Wyatt, Morgan, Lilly, and Jaxson; her nephews; and many cherished friends and loved ones.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Stephen and Lois LiVolsi.
Patti's life taught those around her what it meant to be a strong fighter. She faced life's challenges with strength and courage, and she continued to fight until the very end. Her family will always be proud of the strength she showed throughout her life.
Mom, you touched each of us in ways that were uniquely your own. We will carry your memory, your love, your laughter, and all the little moments we shared with us forever.
Rest easy, Mom. You can be with Grandmom and Pop Pop now. We love you, and we will miss you more than words can ever say.
