Patricia Herzberg
July 16, 1939 –
Patricia (Keller) Herzberg, 83, of Sun City Center, FL, left her earthly body and entered the Gates of Heaven on Saturday, April 15, 2023. The family is sure she was met with much rejoicing by her husband, William Herzberg; son, Wayne Herzberg; parents, Ed and Mary Keller; siblings, Mary Hummer, Marcella Keller, Beverly Pond, Barbara Szymanski, Joan Keller and Ed Keller, Jr.; and many other loved ones.
She passed peacefully at the home of her daughter, Barb Herzberg, of Land O Lakes, FL. Pat is also survived by her son, Randy Reynolds, of Muscatine, Iowa; her grandson, Dylan Herzberg, of Ft. Myers, FL; 13 nieces and nephews; many grand-nieces and nephews; and great-grand-nieces and nephews.
Pat was born in Kewanee, IL, on July 16, 1939. After marrying Bill Herzberg of Davenport, Iowa, on Sept. 25, 1965, she lived in Bettendorf, Iowa, and then Ft. Myers, FL, before moving to Sun City Center, Florida in 2003.
Pat graduated from Kewanee High School and then Illinois State University as an art education major. She also had graduate studies from the University of Iowa, Western University and the University of Santa Clare, California. She spent many years teaching art to students of all ages in schools, community centers, art leagues and even in her own home to homeschoolers.
She was an accomplished watercolorist and won many awards and accolades for her paintings. She served as president of the Ft. Myers Art League for a few years and was a member of the Florida Watercolor Society.
Pat cherished her family and the many friends she made in her life from grade school, college, church, art clubs and the “group at the pool.”
She will be laid to rest in Kewanee, IL, with her husband, parents and siblings.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Gulfside Hospice in Pat’s memory.
