Obituary
Patricia Shelton Collins of Stewartsville, Va., passed away on Thursday, September 7, 2023. She is now with God after a six-month bout with Cancer.
Pat loved life, especially her family. Her nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews were her biggest pride. She was Mama Pat to them all. Nothing gave her more pride and joy like “her kids.” Pat’s favorite thing was to be part of the Choir at church. She truly loved to sing.
Pat follows her deceased nephew, Timothy Habeck to her eternal home.
Left to cherish her memories is her husband of 47 years, Dennis Collins; her mother, Judy Shelton; aunt, Angie Dillon; siblings, Dolly Habeck (Sidney), Johnnie Shelton, and David Shelton (Sue); nieces and nephews, Laura Simmons (Shae), Aimee Rigney, Matthew Habeck (Ashley), Jonathan Shelton, Steve Shelton, Rose Cawley, and Amber Habeck (Josh); great-nieces and nephews, Natalie Yates (Walker), Emaleigh Habeck (Austin), Layla Habeck, Wyatt Simmons, and Liam Habeck (They were all “Pat’s kids”); a multitude of cousins and other relatives; and her pup, Bella, who stayed by her side.
The family wishes to thank her special caregivers for their tender care and support. A special thanks to Hospice Nurse, Alice, for the love and care you gave Pat during her illness.
The family will receive friends from 6 to 8 p.m. on Sunday, September 10, 2023, at Oakey’s Vinton Chapel. The Funeral Service will be conducted at 10 a.m. on Monday, September 11, 2023, at Oakey’s Vinton Chapel with the Rev. Jake Roudebush officiating. Burial will follow at Old Dominion Memorial Park.
