Graveside services are tentatively scheduled for Saturday, August 22, 2026. Additional service and burial details will be announced when arrangements are finalized.
Patti was born November 15, 1952, in Algona to Raymond Clement Goodman and Barbara Irene Leinen Goodman. She graduated from Garrigan High School in 1971 and later continued her education at Buena Vista University.

Even while facing her own challenges, Patti maintained her quick wit and hopeful outlook. Family and friends will remember her laughter, welcoming hugs and willingness to share her time and resources with those around her.
Patti especially treasured time with her daughters and grandchildren. She also enjoyed meeting her sisters and friends for coffee and conversation.
