Patricia Yagodinski passed into eternal life on September 21, 2026, at St. Luke’s Hospital in Milwaukee. Born in Beaver Dam on May 9, 1953, she was the cherished daughter of Glenn and Esther (Gruber) Yagodinski.
Pat dedicated her life to Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the family home, she lovingly cared for her mother, father, and brother in their times of need.
Attending Mass at St. Katharine Drexel Church was a daily practice for Pat. She prayed the Rosary, the Divine Mercy Chaplet, and adored Jesus in the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. She was loved by her parish family, and her presence with them will be greatly missed.
Belief in the sanctity of all life was at the core of Pat’s being. She regularly prayed for the protection of unborn children. All creatures, great and small, were some of Pat’s favorites. From songbirds to horses to her cat, Callie, she enjoyed them all.
Pat demonstrated a deep love of Country. Her appreciation for all veterans was inspired by her brother, Charles, who served in the United States Air Force.
One of Pat’s God-given gifts was her artistic talent, which she used to create beauty in the Catholic parishes of Beaver Dam. She designed bulletins for Fr. Charles at St. Patrick’s Church. She served on parish environment committees, providing beauty for each liturgical season. In addition, Pat repainted statues and created exquisite drawings of the Passion of Christ.
Pat was preceded in death by her parents, Glenn and Esther Yagodinski and her brother, Charles Yagodinski. She is survived by her cousin Dan (Penny) Yagodinski and family and many other relatives, friends, and her St. Katharine Drexel family.
A visitation for Patricia will be held on Tuesday, September 29, 2026 at St. Katharine Drexel Church from 9:30 a.m.-10:50 a.m. Mass of Christian Burial will begin at 11: 00 a.m. with Father Nick Dhein officiating. The Rosary will be prayed at 10:00 a.m. Burial at St. Patrick’s Cemetery will follow the Mass.
