Patricia R. Still

Patricia Reynolds Still, born in Los Angeles, CA on October 4, 1931, died on Tuesday, September 7, 2021. She is survived by her daughters, Faith Croswell (Jeff Croswell), Debbie Johnson (Charlie Johnson), Erin Cizina, and Tracy Rodgers (Michael Rodgers). She is also survived by her sister Lynn Carlin Wolfe, five nieces and nephews, nine grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. Patty grew up in Los Angeles and, at the age of fourteen, moved to Laguna Beach, CA where her love of the beach began. She graduated from Laguna Beach High School in 1949 and then attended classes at Immaculate Heart College, Orange Coast College, and San Diego State University. In 1952, she married Doug Morrison and had two daughters. They eventually divorced and in 1962, she met and married her husband of 48 years, Kim Still, with whom she had two more daughters. Patty and Kim moved to Old Greenwich, CT early in their marriage and lived there for five years. They returned to California in 1968 and lived in Huntington Beach for 26 years. In 1994, Kim and Patty moved to Sutter Creek, CA. They built a beautiful house in the foothills and made Sutter Creek their home until Kim's death in 2010. At that time, Patty moved to Benicia, CA to be closer to her daughters. She had many interests including cooking, reading, sewing, home decorating, entertaining, and spending time with family and friends. She and Kim hosted many wonderful holiday meals, bringing family and friends together from far and wide. They shared their home with several exchange students and foreign friends throughout the years and travelled widely. They also spent many vacations at their beloved cabin in South Lake Tahoe. In more recent years, Patty was the driving force behind a major restoration and clean-up of the Sutter Creek Cemetery, sponsored by the Sutter Creek Women’s Club. She was active in the Friends of the Library, AAUW, Benicia Historical Society, and the Benicia Friendship Club. Patty was a loving, devoted wife and mother. She was a wonderful older sister and cared deeply for her family and friends. She will be missed, and her memory cherished for many years to come. Per her wishes, there will be no memorial service. Patty and Kim adopted several pets from local shelters. Please consider making a donation in her memory to the Humane Society of the North Bay, A-Pal Humane Society of Jackson CA, or an animal rescue organization of your choice.
