Patricia Mann

Patricia “Patty” M. Mann, 58, of Alpharetta passed away peacefully August 20, 2020. She was born November 23, 1961 in Glennville, GA to the late Lamont and Madera Moody. She was a 1979 graduate of Glennville High School. Patty was a high school history teacher for almost 30 years, teaching at Long County High School, Eagle's Landing, Union Grove and most recently at Cambridge High School in Alpharetta. She loved talking, yoga, hiking, reading, history (of course) and traveling the world. She grew up with modest means and was the first in her family to go to college, but by the time of her death, she had acquired three degrees, visited six continents and dozens of countries, and positively impacted the lives of thousands of students and friends. Patty was an affable person who could make anyone feel loved and important. Her passion for teaching was eclipsed only by her love for all others, most notably, her “baby boy.” She is preceded in death by her parents, Lamont Moody and Madera Mann Moody.

She is survived by her son, Patrick Hall and his fiancé Jen Murray of Indiana, one sister, Diane Moody of Glennville, a niece, Kristen Moody Chancey (Tyler) and her three children, Folsom, Gracie Mae and Grayson. Several other relatives also survive.

A memorial service will be held in Patty’s memory, 6:00 pm, Thursday, August 27, 2020 at the chapel of Brannen-Kennedy Funeral Home.
