Patricia Hoover

Patricia P. Hoover, age 81, of Woodbridge, Virginia passed away on Wednesday, September 25, 2024. Pat was born December 5, 1942, in Chatham, Virgina. Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.millerfuneralhome.net for the Hoover family. Pat Hoover was born and raised in Chatham, VA. She was the second of three children born to James and Bessie Payne. Her siblings were Betty June and Virginia (Ginger). Pat graduated from Chatham High School in 1961 and shortly thereafter, moved to Northern Virginia to work for the Department of the Navy as a secretary. It was after she moved to Northern Virginia that she met her husband, Tom. They were married in 1963 in Chatham, VA. Then in 1968, they started a family with the birth of their first child, Stacy Lynn. Then they added to their family in 1972 with the birth of their second child, James Samuel. They completed their family in 1982 with the birth of their third child, Jennifer Ann. A major part of Pat's life was her faith. Tom and Pat were baptized as Jehovah's Witnesses in 1976. Their lives were centered around spiritual activities. Pat quit working and became a full-time mom to care for her family. Pat was quiet and reserved but was known for her deep faith and desire to serve Jehovah loyally. Pat was a devoted wife and mother. She felt strongly that her role was to support her husband in his theocratic responsibilities and home-based business. She worked tirelessly for her family, getting up early in the morning and working late into the night to make sure everyone in the family had what they needed. She loved going to the Beach and to the Lake. Our family has many fond memories of our time together going to Smith Mountain Lake, Myrtle Beach, Wintergreen, California, Thousand Islands, NY, and many other family trips and vacations. Pat is survived by her sisters Betty June and Ginger (Bob) her daughter Stacy Henderson (TJ), her son Sam (Stephanie), and her daughter Jennifer Pinto (Sarah), her grandchildren Skylar, Cody, Harrison, Jackson, Mackenzie, Madison, Mason, and a host of other extended family members. Pat will be interred at Green Hill Cemetery in Waynesboro, PA next to her husband Tom. A graveside service will be held for immediate family only. The date and time of this graveside service has yet to be determined. The Hoover family would like to express our appreciation for all of the phone calls, text messages, flowers, and encouraging words from family and friends. Your support and shared memories mean a lot to us.
