Exeter - Exeter - Patricia H. (Joralmon-Keller) Jones passed away April 24, 2025 in Exeter, NH where she spent her final days in the loving care of her daughter Andrea.

She was born on February 3, 1935 in Amesbury, Mass to Marjorie (Lees) Joralmon and Harold Joralmon.

Pat grew up in Merrimac, MA where she graduated from Merrimac High School. In High School, she graduated with honors, played basketball all four years and was captain of the girl's team playing the position of guard, was the editor of the school journal and yearbook, participated in Glee Club and was the author of the class prophecy.

Following high school, Pat was a homemaker, mother, grandmother, great- grandmother, sister, aunt and friend to many.

Holidays were spent with extended family around the table. She would be up at 4 a.m. to get "the bird" stuffed and into the oven so it could slow roast to golden perfection.

After raising her five children, Pat pursued various interests including working at Sam's Club and then Walmart well into her 80's where she loved meeting people and "keeping busy" but her lifelong passion was gardening. She could often be found barefoot in her garden beds, sun up to sun down, tirelessly nursing and tending to her many flower and vegetable plants at the home she shared with her husband Dave in Seabrook.

In addition to her parents, Pat was predeceased by her husband David Jones, son Thomas Keller and her daughter-in-law, Pauline Keller. Pat is survived by her sons Michael and wife, Doreen and Lucas and daughters Andrea Bailey and Martha Swafford and husband, Tommy, Sister Carol Anne Beauvais and many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Her family is forever grateful to the hospice nurses and aides who tended to her in her final days as well as the many volunteers from Market Street Baptist Church who sat with her.

At her request, there will be no services. Her family will hold a private celebration of her life, at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in Pat's memory to St. Jude Children's Hospital, 501 St. Jude Place, Memphis, TN 38105. Arrangements were made by Paul C. Rogers Family Funeral Amesbury, 2 Hillside Avenue, Amesbury, MA 01913.
