Patricia Ann Vlahos 1943-2026

Patty was born March 16, 1943, in Warren, a daughter of the late Michael and Amelia DeCandio Pecorelli.

Patty was a 1960 graduate of St. Mary High School, where she met the love of her life, John H. Vlahos “Bumpy.”

Following graduation, Patty worked as a secretary for Dr. Harold Brodell until taking up her full-time position as a homemaker and loving mother of three daughters. Later, she worked alongside her husband for 20 years as co-owner of Baskin Robbins at the Eastwood Mall and Liberty Plaza. She also became famously known as “Patty Cakes” around Trumbull County. She dearly enjoyed being a part of so many special occasions, using her talent of baking to create memories for everyone.

Outside of work, Patty was very active. She enjoyed playing tennis, golf and bridge on a regular basis, where she made many lifelong friends. There wasn’t a cooking show or Hallmark movie that she didn’t like, and she often teased that she was a pro at Facebook. Patty was also a devoted member of St. Teresa of Calcutta Parish and a member of the Rosary Society of Blessed Sacrament Church. Most of all, Patty loved spending time with her family and friends, especially her grandchildren. Whether it was a short trip or an extended vacation to the beach, Patty cherished the time she spent with those she loved. She always brought a big smile, warm hugs, joy and laughter to all occasions. She will be deeply missed and her legacy will be forever treasured.

Patty will always be remembered by her loving husband of 61 ½ years, John H. Vlahos “Bumpy” of Warren. From high school sweethearts, their love and commitment to each other was an inspiration to all who knew them. They truly created a life filled with love and countless memories. Patty will also be remembered by her loving family, her daughters, Lori (Michael) Sajnovsky, Tricia (John) Condoleon and Vicki (Timothy) Orwig, all of Howland; grandchildren, Michael (Taylor) Sajnovsky, Phillip (Alexa) Sajnovsky, Jenna Sajnovsky, Caitlyn Condoleon, Michael Condoleon, Laney Condoleon, Emily Klaus, Benjamin Klaus and Owen Orwig; great-grandchildren, Amelia and Michael; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Besides her parents, Patty was preceded in death by her brothers, Sam (Joan) Pecorelli and Leonard Pecorelli.
