In Memoriam

By Firefighter James Corbett

May 20, 2026

The Department members extend our condolences to the family of Pat Prosper, widow of Ex Chief Jim Prosper.

POTSDAM - Patricia Lucille Prosper, 88, of Potsdam, NY passed away on May 16th, 2026. Born in Buffalo, NY on October 4th, 1937. She moved to Potsdam, NY and married James Prosper on September 13, 1958. She was a respected worker for PACES as a cashier at SUNY Potsdam for 25 years.

Patricia is survived by her 3 children, Tom Prosper (Crystal) of Yorktown, VA, Roxanne Dumas (Rick) of Canton, NY, and Lori Hollis (Paul) of Potsdam, NY. She is also survived by her 4 grandchildren, Ashley, Kala, Emily and Tyler and her 4 great grandchildren, Teagan, Bennett, Russell and Elsie.

Pat was a very loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Her greatest joy in life was spending time with her family. She was the most generous person, always there if her family needed anything. She will be missed immensely.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Potsdam Fire Department, but the family also welcomes flowers which will be donated to Maplewood Nursing Facility after the graveside service.
