- Patricia Kamman, Our dear mother went home to be with our Lord on Monday, October 8th, 2012 surrounded by her 3 girls and friends. She was born in Vicksburg, Mississippi to A. H. (Pat) Riley and Phyllis Bodeker Riley.
Patricia's love and devotion to God were an inspiration to all. Her wisdom and guidance as a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grand mother will be deeply missed. Pat had many interests that she followed. Her love of antiques brought her to Magazine Street, where she opened an antique store. Pat was a very talented artist. She worked in acrylic and water. She won many local art awards. The highest honor she received was from the D.A.R. Museum in Washington, D.C., where her painting was displayed. Pat was very involved with her church, St. Andrews the Apostle, in Algiers La. She belonged to their church group "The Sages" where she was president, from 2002 to 2003. Pat believed in volunteering and did so, in a quiet manner. She worked for many years with "United Churches of Algiers". She also volunteered for the "Museum of Modern Art" in New Orleans. One of her favorite things to do was to visit nursing homes. She was a lay minister for the Catholic Church and gave communion to the elderly. Pat graduated from Dominican High School. She went on to get her Dental Hygienist degree from The University of Chicago. She was the 13th registered Dental Hygienist in the state of Louisiana.
