Patricia Jean Trombley was born September 2, 1938 in Atlanta, Georgia. While her formative years were spent growing up in Atlanta, Trish (as her family and friends called her) moved to Houston as a young woman in her twenties. Not too long after moving to Houston, she met her future husband Joe Trombley in 1964. Joe and Trish dated for about a year before marrying in 1965. In 1969, Joe and Trish welcomed their first child (Todd) into the world and in 1971 were blessed with a daughter (Tia).
Joe and Trish raised their children in Pasadena, Texas and ultimately retired to the Clear Lake area. Trish was a loving mother and grandmother. She passed away quietly at home on August 1, 2019. She is survived by her husband Joe, her children, and her three granddaughters.
