Patricia Ann Brimmer
After a six and a half year battle with breast cancer, Patricia Ann Howie Brimmer, passed away at Mercy of Iowa City Hospice Unit on September 29, 2016 at 11:09 AM surrounded by family. She resided in Coralville, Iowa.
She is survived by her brother Steve Howie, sister-in-law Debbie Howie, brother Douglas Howie, sister Elizabeth (Howie) Moore, brother in law Kim Moore, nephew Colin Moore, niece Jessica (Moore) Vickers, and great nephews Alexander and Harrison Vickers.
Patricia was born in Monticello, Iowa, on February 20, 1951. Her parents were Donald Lavern Howie, MD of Monticello and Lucille Stange Howie of Osage, Iowa. Early on she moved frequently as her father was in the military and when in the fourth grade she landed in the Washington D.C., area where she stayed the majority of her life. Pat married Earle Brimmer in 1982. In 2006, she and her husband moved to the Iowa City area to be closer to her sister and family.
Pat got a job at the University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics as a move coordinator for capital management in 2006, and transitioned into other jobs within capital management. She made many friends and acquaintances throughout the hospital in the course of her work, where she touched many people’s lives and they touched hers.
A special thanks to all the staff at Mercy Iowa City Hospice and Home Choice who helped Pat’s last days be caring and comfortable.
In lieu of flowers, the family request donations to breast cancer research or Iowa City Hospice.
