LEWISTON — Patricia A. (Moran) Pastore, 52, a resident of Lewiston, died Saturday, Sept. 22, after her courageous battle with cancer.

She was born in Lewiston on March 29, 1966, the youngest child and only daughter of the late Michael Moran Sr. and Helen (Tracy) Moran.

Extremely intelligent, Pat could find humor whenever and wherever needed. Her sarcastic wit was only matched by her compassion. She loved animals, having adopted cats and dogs from local shelters throughout her lifetime. She always placed family above everything. She filled every person around her with laughter and love.

She loved the Boston Red Sox, Dunkin’ Donuts and her friends at Change Healthcare (formerly McKesson), with whom she worked for 13 years.

She is survived by two sons, Ernie Bragg and his wife, Cynthia Rodriguez, of Erlenbach, Germany, and Tony and his wife, Krista Pastore, of Fort Lewis, Wash.; two daughters, Teresa Pastore of Lewiston and Allison and her husband, Alex MacQueen, of Florissant, Mo.; three brothers, Michael (and Kendall), James (and Barbara) and John; four grandchildren, Gabe, Bella, Liam and Charlotte Pastore; and her favorite cat, Flame.
