Patrick Sanders, 67, of Lake Worth, Florida, formally of Elrama, Pennsylvania, passed away on February 11th, 2026, following a very strong fight against cancer. He was born on November 8th, 1958, a son of the late Clemie “Rudy” and Joyce (Weir) Sanders. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brothers, Mark and Joseph Sanders, as well as the mother of his daughter, Shelly, whom he loved very much.

Patrick graduated from Reingold High School, where he was a wrestler and an art enthusiast. He also took private accordion lessons and had a passion for music. He worked for his father as a brick layer and went to drafting school. He later moved to Florida where he became an exterior/interior painter by trade. He worked in several places throughout West Palm Beach from large homes, condos and hotels on Palm Beach Island, as well as individual homes all over West Palm Beach. His painting business quickly grew as word got around of how beautiful his work was. He had a love of classic cars and could fix almost anything mechanical. He had a strong connection to the ocean and spent most of his retirement exercising, swimming and socializing along Lake Worth Beach. He formed many meaningful friendships and was very well known. He often made everyone laugh by comparing himself to the fish he would swim with. Pat enjoyed martial arts such as boxing, Karate and nun chucks.

He is survived by all who knew him including his life partner, Joan Ciotti, his daughter, Hayden Sanders, his sister, Lisa (Richard) Guthrie and his nephew, Christopher Guthrie.

Friends will be received on Thursday, February 19th from 2–4 P.M. and 6–8 P.M. in the Noll Funeral Home Inc., 333 Third Street, Beaver, who was in charge of his arrangements. Private interment will take place at the Beaver Cemetery, Buffalo Street, Beaver.
