Sister Patricia was the oldest of eight children of William Wood and Helen McAnany Marshall, Kansas City. After attending Mount St. Scholastica Academy, she entered the Benedictine Sisters in 1933 and made monastic profession in 1934. Degrees in French and library science from Mount St. Scholastica College and The Catholic University of America formed her early academic background, which was enriched by further study and foreign travel. Much of her teaching career was spent at Lillis High School and Penn Valley Community College, Kansas City, Mo.; at St. Joseph High School, Shawnee, and Donnelly College, Kansas City. She spent four years in Mexico City, Mexico, teaching at the Colegio Guadalupe, an endeavor sponsored by the Mount community. She also taught at Benet Hill and at National College, Colorado Springs, Colo., at Seneca, and at Bishop LeBlond, St. Joseph, Mo.
She was director and teacher in the English as a Second Language (One World) program at Donnelly College, and included many practical aspects of life in the United States in her work and travel with students from many countries. After she retired, she was community librarian for several years.
Sister Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, by her brothers Manfield, Paul, David, and Ted, and by her sister Jane (Mrs. G. A. Swanick). She is survived by her brother MacCay III; by her sister Faith (Mrs. E. F. Anderson), of Tucson, Arizona; by nieces, nephews, cousins, and by her monastic family.
