Patricia Ann Hayden, “Patty” to some, “Trisha” to others, 61, a native of Baltimore, Maryland, and a resident of Hampton, passed away Friday, March 22, 2019, while at home under hospice care.
She had a great talent for knitting and crocheting, making several family members beautiful hats, blankets and afghans. Patty also had an eye for interior decoration and floral arrangements and designs, having produced many well-received designs and works. She also made, for special occasions, handmade Italian pasta dishes that drew crowds and earned high praise. Patty also possessed a generous heart, as she made tins full of homemade cookies of all varieties for her brothers at Christmastime. These treats were so well received, they often sparked bartering and bargaining among the brothers.
Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, William H. Weber Jr. and Marian I. Weber; and husband, Robert B. Hayden. She is survived by three sons, William R. Weber, Staff Sgt. Ricky Hayden, and his wife, Allyssa, and Daniel Hayden, and his wife, Chaneice; daughter, Elizabeth Hayden; three brothers, Ronald A. Weber, and his wife, Wyn, William H. Weber III, and his wife, Natalie, and Russell E. Weber, and his wife, Teri; and six grandchildren, Benjamin, Caitlynn and Matthew Hayden, Alexander Hayden, and Liam and Lily Hayden.
