GILFORD --- Patricia Gale Fitts, 68, of Liscomb Circle, passed away on, Wednesday, December 25, 2024, at Concord Hospital – Laconia, after a brief period of illness.
Patricia was born on July 13, 1956, in Bangor, ME, the daughter of the late Alden Edward Badershall and Joyce Mary (Bennett) Badershall.
Patricia had the biggest heart of gold. She was everyone’s personal cheerleader. She loved the New England Patriots. Her favorite place to be was at Bayside, in Maine, by the water watching the sailboats go by. Patricia enjoyed spending time with her family, especially her grandson, who she loved more than anything in the world.
She worked for First Student as a bus driver in Gilford, NH, a job that she absolutely loved. Patricia adored the children that she would transport to and from school. She treated those children as if they were her own.
Patricia was the best friend anyone could ask for; she will be sorely missed.
