Patricia Barrett-Sweeney
Patricia Florence Barrett Sweeney born on August 12, 1924 began her journey as an orphan at Father Baker’s Our Lady of Victory Orphanage in Lackawana, New York. From such a humble beginning to the family of Patrick & Pearl Barrett to her marriage and family with Robert E. Sweeney, Pat Sweeney has never taken a day (or a minute) for granted. From an orphan to an only child to a mother of 13 to a grandmother (and great-grandmother) of more children than anyone can reasonably count, Pat Sweeney’s legacy above all is her family and her faith. Here are just some memories captured along the way.
