Patricia Testerman Hedrick, 73, passed away peacefully at her home in Martinsville, Virginia, on August 5, 2026. She was a cherished mother, grandmother, and friend. Her presence will be deeply missed.
Patricia was born in Arlington, Virginia on August 12, 1952, to Edward and Dorothy Testerman. She moved to Martinsville in 1973 where she dedicated her life to raising her children and step-children. She loved and worshiped her Lord and Savior at Hillcrest Baptist Church from 1990.
Known as “Nanny” to her grandchildren and “Mama Pat” to various friends and neighbors, Patricia will be remembered for her nurturing heart and dedication to the Lord. In addition to raising her children at home, she had a green thumb that could revive any flower, a knack for capturing any pet’s affection, and an adoration for spreading the Word in the Wee Kids Ministry at church. Her gentle touch and infectious smile touched and brightened the lives of all who knew her.
