Patricia Dorayne Wright

Patricia “Patti” Wright, age 72, passed away at The Villas at Sunny Acres nursing home in Northglenn, Colorado on October 18, 2021.

Patricia Dorayne Wright was born on May 24, 1949 in Colorado to Wayne and Doris Wright. She was raised in the Denver area with her older sister, Linda.

Patti attended Skinner Middle School and graduated North High School in 1967. Patti enjoyed participating in Girl Scouts and competing in gymnastics. She also loved the outdoors.

Patti honed her craft of cooking and baking, and making elaborately frosted birthday cakes. She had a creative flair, and a fondness for decorating and going “all out” for the holidays. Patti was very musically talented and loved playing the piano. She enjoyed her career as a piano teacher over several decades. Piano and music were her lifelong passions. Visits with her two grandsons were a highlight for Patti in recent years and always made her smile. She was thrilled to know that her grandsons were following in her footsteps by learning and excelling at the piano.

Patti is survived by her two children Jennifer Frickell of San Francisco, CA, and Eric (Melissa) Frickell of Brighton, CO; her two school-age grandsons; and her two nephews Robert (Lisa) Doehling of Lawrenceville, GA, and Dean Doehling of Jasper, GA.

Patti was preceded in death by her parents Wayne and Doris Wright, and her sister Linda Doehling-Nelson.

Following cremation, Patti will be laid to rest next to her parents in the Arvada Cemetery in Arvada, Colorado.
