Patricia Ann Specht

Patricia Ann Specht, 80, passed away peacefully at her home in Harbor Springs, Michigan, on August 4, 2025, with her family and faithful dogs by her side.

Pat was outgoing, always with a big smile and had words of wisdom and encouragement when they were most needed. Pat and her partner Jane built their lovely log home for retirement in the beautiful north woods. They also spent time traveling throughout the US and Canada visiting national parks before dementia and cancer took Pat from us.

She is survived by her loving spouse, Jane Stipe; sister Cheryl (Daniel) Tedder; brothers Bob and Scott Specht; nephew Ken (Vanessa) Bruff; close friend Ilene Farrell; plus, many other nieces and nephews and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents Hildred and Casimer Specht and birth parents Mildred Skenandore Baird and Rusty Turney.

Special thanks to the wonderful staff at Pineview Cottage and the extraordinary care given by Hospice of Michigan. Cremation has taken place, and private interment will occur at a later date.
