Sauber Patricia

Patricia A. Sauber, 89, of Fremont, OH passed away on Sunday, February 6, 2022 at Valley View Health Campus in Fremont.  She was born on October 14, 1932 in Tiffin, OH, the daughter of John and Thora (McGowan) Bland.  She was a 1950 graduate of Tiffin Calvert High School and received a bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Bowling Green State University.

    The Sauber family, you have my deepest sympathies with the loss of your mother. I grew up in the same neighborhood as all of you, and remember your mom as being so nice. I’m brought back to memories of the rope swing that took us across the creek, (or INTO the creek), in your back yard! God rest her soul in Heaven as she rejoins your dad.

    Our condolences to the whole family. Some of my best childhood memories of Pat are from our family reunions at the Izaak Walton.

    Sauber Family,

    You are in our thought and prayers at this time. I am sure your dad was there to great her upon her arrival. She sure was a great person, and helped many students out, including myself. Mom is sad to have lost another friend.

    My Sincere condolences to the family of Patricia Sauber. I only knew Pat for a short time but during that time she was a pure joy to be around. Her love for the Lord and her family was very evident in every visit I had with her and even though I was there as her caretaker from Action Angels I felt more like I was visiting a dear friend. She will definitely be missed by all those that have know her. She touched my life for sure!! Prayers for all of you in the days ahead!!

    My dear family,
    You know how close since high school we have been with your parents. My heart goes out to you in your loss.
    I fully intended to attend the funeral but I have been diagnosed with COVID so exposing you would not be a good thing. 🙂
    My thoughts and prayers are with you.
    I have no phone numbers or addresses for any of you but would like to keep in touch if agreeable with you. 🙂
    Love you all, Peggy Zoll
