Patricia M. O'Quinn

Patricia Marchand O’Quinn, born September 17, 1945, passed away peacefully on December 13, 2025, at 2:13 p.m. A resident of Denham Springs, Louisiana. Patricia grew up in Cottonport, Louisiana.

She was preceded in death by her beloved son, Jonathan O’Quinn; her parents, Blanchard Joseph Marchand and Ella Mae Guillotte Marchand; and her siblings, Hank Marchand, Blanchard Joseph Marchand Jr., and Susan Chenevert.

She is survived by her loving husband of 61 years, Linden O’Quinn; her sons, Darrell (Kristina) O’Quinn and Richard (Lisa) O’Quinn; her cherished grandchildren, Justin O’Quinn, Mason O’Quinn, Landon O’Quinn, Jacques O’Quinn, and Aine O’Quinn; her great-grandchildren, Bailey Redd, Camille O’Quinn, and Alivia O’Quinn. She is also survived by her siblings, Peter Marchand (Wanda), Margaret Slocum, Laura Potter (Philip), and Jane Smith, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.

Patricia began her career in banking at Louisiana National Bank, where she developed lifelong friendships. More important than any professional role, however, was her devotion as a mother and grandmother, roles she cherished deeply and lived fully. Patricia’s compassion extended far beyond her immediate family. When her sister Jane’s son, Timothy, was battling terminal leukemia, Patricia and Sue visited him with extraordinary faithfulness. They were so consistently present that Timothy affectionately referred to them as Aunt PataSue, a name that reflected the depth of their love and care. She was a faithful member of Amite Baptist Church in Denham Springs, where she lived out her faith with quiet strength and grace.

Relatives and friends are invited to join the family for the visitation at Seale Funeral Home, 1720 S. Range Ave., Denham Springs, on Friday, December 19, 2025, from 3:00 PM until 8:00 PM. The visitation will continue at Amite Baptist Church, 7100 Amite Church Rd., Denham Springs, on Saturday, December 20, 2025, from 9:00 AM until the funeral service at 11:00 AM. The graveside service and burial will follow at Amite Baptist Church Cemetery, in Denham Springs, LA.

She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
