Patricia Hosten
May 13, 1935 — June 26, 2022
Patricia Hosten
Pat was born May 13,1935 in Washington, DC to Reverend Dr. William O. Carrington and Pearl Montrose Carrington. She was a graduate of New York City Public Schools, and earned a Bachelor's degree from Brooklyn College and a Master's degree in counseling from Fordham University. Pat spent her career in education, retiring from Greenburgh Central 7 School District in 2000 as a Guidance Counselor at Woodlands High School. Some of her proudest and happiest memories were through her continued relationships with former students sharing their personal and professional journeys.
She was active at her parish Grace Episcopal Church, in White Plains for over 50 years. A great cook and baker, Pat also loved to spend time in her garden. Above all, she loved being a wife, mother, and especially a grandmother. Pat lived for her two grandchildren, and always treasured spending time with them. Both were the apple of her eye.
Pat is predeceased by her beloved husband Borah, her brother William Carrington II and her sisters Gwendolyn Simpson and Felicia Carrington. She is survived by her brother John Carrington; her loving sons Michael, Gregory and Terence (Shani); and her cherished grandchildren Taylor and Nicholas. She leaves behind nieces: Jeanette Carrington, Marlene Parker, Adrienne Wheeler and Jeanine Thomas; and nephews: Robert Simpson, Bill Carrington, Paul Hosten and Joseph Hosten. Pat will be greatly missed by her family and friends. To honor her life, family and friends will gather as further detailed below.
