Patricia A. Cardinale, age 67, passed away on Thursday, December 22, 2016 at home surrounded by her loving family. 

She was born on April 25, 1949 in Buffalo, NY, the daughter of the late Anthony Wesley and Florence Strelczyk Wesley.

Tricia attended St. Mary’s Catholic High School in Lancaster, NY.

Patricia was a hairdresser for Haas & Co. in Los Angeles, CA for many years.  She loved socializing with family and friends.  She had a wonderful smile that could light up a room. Patricia’s life would seem too short to many, but those who were touched by her understood that the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives. Her gentle smile and boisterous demeaner brought so much joy to our family.  She gave us all such courage and hope and reminded us of the preciousness of life. 

She is survived by her son, Joseph Anthony Cardinale and his wife, Tammy Cardinale; daughter, Felicia Cardinale; grandchildren, Jake, Alex, Olivia and Joey Cardinale; sister, Dolores Seamans and children; nieces and nephews, Paul & Chris Basinski, Rob & Toni Basinski, Mark Basinski, and Karen Ryan. 

She is preceded in death by her father and mother, Anthony & Florence (Strelczk) Wesley; and brother, Richard Wesolowski.

In lieu of a memorial service, Tricia has asked to be cremated and memorialized in Como Park in Buffalo, NY.
