Patricia Ann Fore

Patricia Ann Fore, 85, of Roanoke, went to be with the Lord on Thursday, July 16, 2026.

Born on October 15, 1940, in Roanoke, Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, Earl H. Rogers and Mildred Palmer; her brother, E. Hampton Rogers; and her two sons, Larry Fore and Ronald Fore.

Patricia had a sweet tooth that everyone knew about and a special love for cats, which brought her much comfort and companionship over the years. She enjoyed an active social life at Friendship Manor, where she especially looked forward to playing bingo. She was known to cut visits short so she wouldn't miss a game, a tradition that always brought a smile to those who knew her.

Left to cherish her memory are her son, David Fore (YaoQi), and her nephew, Terry Rogers (Nancy).

A graveside service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, August 8, 2026, at Beaverdam Baptist Church Cemetery with Pastor Paul Stover officiating.
