Patricia Lee White Hallowell

Patricia "Patti" Lee White Hallowell, age 88, of Demorest, passed away peacefully at her home on Thursday, January 1, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. She was born on August 3, 1937, to the late Jules Wexler White and Ruth Bolton White, who instilled in her a strong sense of grace, curiosity, and devotion to others—qualities that defined her life. She was also preceded in death by her brother William Forrest "Bill" White.

Patricia was the beloved wife of Bruce Hallowell, her partner in life and love. Together they built a family grounded in warmth, encouragement, and enduring affection. She was a devoted mother to her sons, David Carter Hallowell; Bruce William Hallowell II; and Kevin Thomas Hallowell and his wife, Christy. Her joy multiplied as a grandmother to Russell “Rusty” Hallowell, Tyler Hallowell, Rebecca Marie Hallowell, Amber Renee Sothsavath, and William Grey Hallowell, and as a great-grandmother to Talen Carter Sothsavath and Jeffery Walker Stone.

She is also survived by her brother Richard "Dick" White; sister-in-law Glenda Beth Read White along with several cherished nieces and a nephew who held a special place in her heart.

Patricia lived a life marked by professionalism, kindness, and a love of learning. She spent many years as a flight attendant with Delta Airlines, where she combined her poise and warmth with a spirit of adventure, forming lasting connections with colleagues and passengers alike. After her retirement, she continued to share her gifts by studying at the Brenau University School of Music, where she inspired other students with her dedication and passion.

No formal services are scheduled.
