on February 20, 2014 at Port Healthcare in Newburyport with her loving
family by her side. She was the beloved ***wife of Nolan R. Morris Jr. who

One of two children, of the late Jerome Alfred (Darby) Reardon and Alice

loved her home in Newburyport and was an active member of the community for
her entire life. She grew up on Dexter Street and spent all of her married
life on Jefferson Street. In the past few years she lived at the Heritage
House where she enjoyed the many welcoming people.
Pat loved cooking, especially her grandchildren's favorite cookies. She was
also an avid reader enjoying her weekly visits to the Newburyport Public
Library. Spending time with those close to her was an important part of
Pat's daily life. She welcomed her family and friends to her home not only
on the holidays but every day. Often she would be seen bringing groceries
or delivering a hot meal to someone who was in need of care and compassion.
She was a member of the Immaculate Conception Parish and was a true support
for the many people she cared for during her life. Following in her
father's footsteps, Pat always had a devoted dog by her side and she truly
loved spending time with her family's dogs.
Patricia leaves behind two children, her son Michael and his wife Cheryl of
Newburyport, MA and her daughter, Julie Carey of Amesbury, MA. Spending
time with their "Nannie" was always very important to her three devoted
grandchildren, Allison Lazarz and her husband Christopher of Taunton, MA;
Patrick Carey of Amesbury, MA and Haley Morris of Newburyport, MA. She also
leaves behind her nephew Peter Yates and his wife Peggy of Berkeley Shores,
New Jersey and their two children, Emma and Alli. She was predeceased by her
sister Alice Reardon Yates who passed away in 1970.
