A daughter of the late Eugene and Anna Marie (Tomko) Teslovic, she was born in McKeesport on June 6, 1950. Formerly of Elizabeth (Mt. Vernon), Patty had been a resident of Rostraver Twp. for the past 41 years. Patty embraced a vibrant life, transitioning from her roots as a city girl to a fulfilling life on the farm when she married her beloved husband, John Pasquale. Together, they raised horses, cattle, goats, donkeys, and llamas. Patty particularly loved riding horses with John. Patty dedicated 13 years to teaching 1st grade in the Elizabeth Forward School District. She also worked in accounting and bookkeeping for her father’s business, Teslovic Homes, and her husband’s business, PECO, Inc. Patty and John retired together after working as a team for 28 years. Patty was the organizational mind behind the scenes at Wings, Strings, and Shiny Things. A passionate traveler, Patty explored 58 countries and visited all seven wonders of the world. She cherished family trips to Paris, Disney World, ski trips around the country, Ocean City, and fly-in fishing camps in Canada. Her favorite family retreat was their cozy ski house at Hidden Valley. Additionally, Patty was a Broadway show enthusiast. She enjoyed weekend trips to NYC and weeknight shows in Pittsburgh with her two daughters. Patty loved helping her daughter Libby film T-Rex videos while traveling around the world. Her family was the center of her world. She adored her grandchildren, Damon (Scooby) and Maxwell LaSalle, who lovingly called her Mimi. Patty’s love of life shone brightest during the holidays, especially Christmas, when she went above and beyond to make every celebration magical. Her joy in shopping, decorating, and creating special moments for her family will remain a treasured legacy. Patty is survived by her husband of 41 years, John F. Pasquale, two daughters and sons in-law, Emily and Damon LaSalle of Upper St. Clair and Elizabeth “Libby” and Tyler Hall of Pittsburgh, two grandchildren, and her chosen sister, Sandy Lehner.
