Paulette (Pat) Glazer Ramm, 83, of Overland Park, Kansas, died on Dec. 7. 

Pat was born in Kansas City on Oct. 7, 1942, to the late Jack and Ella Glazer, and was the sister of the late Stanford and Mort Glazer. Pat was a true free-spirit and made her home in New York, Florida, Tennessee and Texas before she eventually made her way back to her permanent home in Kansas. She had many passions that included seeing America from the seat of a motorcycle and flying a single engine plane. Standing beside her during these adventures were her loving children, Denise, Jack and Jenny.

One of her proudest accomplishments was her business of 30 years, Grand-Paws Pet Sitting Service. She incorporated her love for her furry friends and her caring nature into a thriving business serving the community. Her clients always had peace of mind knowing that their pets were in loving hands. Pat always said, “It takes a village,” and her village was made up of pet-sitters as nurturing as she was. 

She was married to the late Bill Ramm, the love of her life for 36 years. Pat leaves behind her heartbroken children, Denise Wagner, Jack (Debi) Wagner and Jen (Chris) Hurd; her wonderful grandchildren, Patricia Huntsman, Caitlin (Nick) Rick, Madison Wagner and Jackson and Hayes Hurd; great-grandchildren, Maxwell, Cameron and William; many friends and wonderful neighbors; and her adoring fur baby, Poppy. 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Kansas City Hospice (9001 State Line Rd., Kansas City, MO 64114) or KC Pet Project (7077 Elmwood Ave., Kansas City, MO 64132).

A Celebration of Life will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 18. For those wishing to attend, please reach out to the family for information at (816) 665-4990. Online condolences for the family may be left at louismemorialchapel.com.
