On August 28, 2021, Patti unexpectedly and quietly made her transition from this life to heaven at her home in Newman, California at the age of 69.
She was born on August 31, 1951 in Stockton, California. She was married to the love of her life and soulmate Joe for 23 years. Patti loved her family and friends and was a friend for life to everyone she met. She loved unconditionally. She was a very giving person and helped many, many people down through the years. She never met a stranger and people were drawn to her vivacious personality. Patti was extremely creative and enjoyed working with her plants and on her home decor. Her home is a showplace. She was a talented hairdresser. She loved animals, especially her cats Bitsy and Percy. She was her happiest when she could travel and enjoyed all types of food.
She is preceded in death by her mother Donna Burch, father Jack Burch and stepdaughter Amy Presley. She is survived by her son Dennis Mercer, granddaughter Mariah Mercer, brother Jackie Dean Burch (Vicky), stepson Aaron Solano (Pauline), sister Nancy Sudduth (Darrel), brother Steven Burch (Hennie), and brother David Burch (Marla). She has many nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews. She was loved by many and will be truly missed.
There will be a private "Celebration of Life" for friends and family.
Services conducted by Hillview Funeral Chapel, Newman, California.

I am so sorry to hear about Patti. It had been a long time since I saw her, but she was always Aunt Patti and was there for my family at a very hard time following the death of my mom. Dennis and family, please know that I am here for you if you need anything.

Hello to all of Patti & Joe's friends.
My dad appreciates all the concern & sympathy over the past few days. He is torn apart by the loss of his wife.
I would ask everyone to coordinate their visits over the next few months to prevent Joe from being overwhelmed. He would love to hear the stories and share his grief, but he also needs a little time alone to rest.
Feel free to message him to ask if he would like company before visiting. Patti did not want to burden him unnecessarily.
Thank you in advance.
