Patricia “Patsy” A. Glacken (nee Zuzulock), age 71, of Philadelphia, PA, passed away suddenly on February 2nd, 2025.
Patsy grew up in the Grays Ferry section of South Philly on Marston Street but as she would say, she was a ‘Wharton Streeter’ at heart. She married the love of her life, Charlie, where they lived in “The Pocket” with their beloved cats. Because Patsy never had children of her own, she took pride in her title of being an aunt. Patsy worked for the University of the Arts and would often say “Those damn college kids!” while laughing about their antics. Patsy had a big heart and had her door open for anyone. She loved to sit around the table with family and friends. If you were to be in Patsy’s presence, you were laughing from the time you got there until the time you left. Patsy lived a life full of laughter and love which she will forever be remembered by.

Dear sister of John (Helen) Zuzulock and sister-in-law of the late Joan McGee, John ‘Scoopy’ Glacken, Edward ‘Batman’ Glacken, and Mary Nally.
