Patricia Marie Martin, 78, resident of Eagle Bridge, NY passed away on October 17, 2025 at Albany Medical Center surrounded by her loving family.
Patricia was born in Lowell, MA on September 26, 1947 to the late Thomas and Margaret Hyland. She was one of three children. Patricia received her early education at North Bennington High School, and following graduation went on to take courses for bookkeeping at Southern Vermont College. Patricia worked at several locations as a financial bookkeeper, but most namely at Star Electric in Bennington, VT.
Patricia would marry the love of her life, Peter Martin, and together would raise three children. Her children and grandchildren were the light of her life. Patricia had many hobbies; she was a craftsperson and had a green thumb. She enjoyed tending to her flowers and gardens at her home. Her and Peter had a camp at Lake Champlain, and during their visits would take the boat out for some leisurely time. She went on one cruise and found much joy in doing so that she was planning on another cruise. Although bookkeeping was her occupation, she wouldn’t hesitate to do taxes for others; she had a knack for numbers. Throughout her life, she adored her pet dogs – Harley is surely missing her presence.
Patricia is survived by her husband, Peter Martin. Children: Sonya Mosso (Bo), Tim Martin (Kim), and Sarah Baker (Joel). Grandchildren: Zachary Martin (Danielle), Alexis Martin, Hailey Martin, Isabella Korb, Noah Crawford (Josie), Isaac Martin, Brady Baker, and Olivia Martin. Great Grandchildren: Nathan Martin, Theo Martin, and Julian Morales. A sister, Donna Jones. As well as several nieces and nephews.
Patricia is predeceased by her parents, Margaret and Thomas Hyland, Sr. and a brother, Thomas Hyland Jr.
A time for visitation will be held on October 26, 2025 from 11:00 – 1:00PM at Mahar & Son Funeral Home in Bennington, VT. A memorial service will follow the visitation. A burial with graveside services will be announced later in the Spring.
