Madison – Patrick R. Kennedy, age 77, passed away on June 28, 2024, at Oak Park Nursing and Rehab. He was born on December 15, 1946, in Wausau, Wisconsin to parents Pete and Doris (Gorman) Kennedy.

Patrick married Sandra K. Markgraf on October 14, 1967, at St. Patrick Catholic Church in Madison and they shared 57 years of marriage. He loved to hunt, putzing around in his garden, feeding the birds, squirrels, and the neighborhood turkeys. He enjoyed watching the badger’s hockey and football and was always happy about being a Packers season ticket holder and watching the games with his family. Pat loved his cats Gus and his favorite Maggie May. He worked as a meat manager for A& P Grocery Store and Kohl Foods.
