Lake Havasu City, Arizona -

Patricia Gross (later Patricia Frantz), 91, passed away on Aug.14, 2024.
Pat was from Allentown, Pennsylvania.

In a burst of adventurousness (some said insanity), she and her husband
Robert Gross moved to Lake Havasu City with their two children in 1975.
Pat and Bob operated House of Gifts stores in Lake Havasu and Bullhead
city for over 20 years. While living in Lake Havasu City, Pat let loose
her creative side by writing a column called "Reflections" in the Havasu
Sun.

Pat moved to Phoenix after Bob's death in 1998 to be closer to her
children and especially her grandchildren, who were the most important
people in the world to her.

Pat's most coveted title was "Nana," not only to her grandchildren, but
to anyone who wanted some Nana time.

Pat is survived by son Jeff Gross (Barb), daughter Debby McArdle (Rich),
grandchildren Katie, Hayley, Matt, Torrey and Kayla, and the most recent
love of her life, great grandson Cooper.

Always humble and never prone to exaggeration, Pat would hate us saying
that she was one of the nicest and most sincere people who ever walked
the earth. But she was. She will be greatly missed. Love you, Bananerz.
