She was born Feb. 10, 1950, at Elkins, a daughter of the late Clarence W. Lamb and Shirley M. Vance Lamb.
On July 17, 1965 she was married to Herman L. Mallow, who survives.
Also surviving are two daughters, Sherry Weese and husband, Clifford, of Highland Park, and Robin Riffle and husband, Adrian, of Beverly; one son, Dennis Mallow and wife, Debbie, of Teaberry Hills; one sister, Shirley Wilfong and husband, Duane, of the Leading Creek Road; and one brother, Michael Lamb and companion, Pat Brandani, of Chenoweth Creek.

Mrs. Mallow attended the schools of Randolph County. She worked at the Memorial General Hospital until she retired to stay home and care for her grandchildren. She enjoyed dirt track racing and she was employed by the Elkins Motor Speedway until her health no longer allowed her this pleasure. She also volunteered her services at Nella’s Nursing Home and was a Girl Scout leader for 20 years. When she wasn’t helping in the community, she enjoyed watching her wind chimes by her bedside, crocheting, crafting, reading and doing search word puzzles. She loved family reunions and her grandchildren. Patty was known by most as “Momma” or “MaMaw” and she will be dearly missed.
