IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Petrina Joy
Westfall
December 1, 2024
Petrina Joy Westfall, 47, of Ronks, PA, passed away peacefully at her home on her birthday and went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Sunday, December 1, 2024. She was the cherished wife of Paul Westfall to whom she was married to for 18 years, and the loving mother of their son Emerson and their daughter Brynn.
Petrina was the daughter of the late Parke and Emma Ranck Sr. A graduate of Lancaster Mennonite, she worked at Hershey Farm Restaurant and State Farm Insurance before choosing to be a stay-at-home mom. She was gifted in hospitality and loved entertaining friends and family at her home. She was quick witted and often made humorous comments. She enjoyed baking, reading, playing games, serving at church, being by the pool and taking their family's annual vacation to Bethany Beach. She was always supporting and encouraging her children in their school and athletic activities.
In addition to her husband and children, Petrina is survived by her siblings Pat married to Raleigh Rhodes, Peg married to Mike Nolt, Parke, Jr. married to Sheila (Nolt), and Pam married to Les Nolt, along with numerous nieces and nephews, many whom considered her their "favorite Aunt".
Petrina courageously battled cancer for 2 years, during which time her motto was "I'm the Lord's servant and He can do with me as He sees fit". Petrina wanted to thank her family, friends, church, community, medical team, and Hospice for the love and care they provided. In lieu of flowers please consider a contribution to an organization that was special to Petrina, including Strasburg Mennonite Youth Group, Hospice & Community Care, Ann B. Barshinger Cancer Institute and The Damien Foundation.
Calling hours will be held at Strasburg Mennonite Church, 1514 Village Road, Strasburg, PA 17579 on Friday, December 6 from 6PM-8PM, and again on Saturday, December 7 from 10AM until the time of her Celebration of Life ceremony at 11AM.
