Patrick Allen Labor, age 66, passed away Monday, March 9, 2026 at his home in Albuquerque after a recent diagnosis of two glioblastoma brain tumors. He had taken a morning walk with his wife Lynn and was with her when he passed. Pat was a devoted husband, loving father, and active member of his church community.

Pat was born in 1959 in Albuquerque to Carl and Dorothy Labor. He was the youngest of five children: Nancy, Polly, Jim, and Mike. Pat attended Bel Air Elementary and McKinley Middle, graduating from Del Norte High School in 1977. Growing up in Albuquerque he was a Boy Scout, a baseball player, and skateboarder.

He met his wife Lynn through a mutual friend after high school. Her childhood home was only a few blocks from his. They were married in July of 1982. Lynn and Pat were married for 44 years, ever the team helping anywhere and everywhere that they could.

They have two children, Stacy and Wesley. Both graduates of Sandia High School. Wes pursued a degree in Environmental Conservation. Stacy is a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner working at the Children's Hospital in Phoenix. Pat's family grew to include five grandchildren who he delighted in. Pat was a supportive dad who came to every school event, coached sports, and stayed up late helping with projects.

Pat was a dedicated member of the community at Grace Church in Albuquerque, then joining Hope Church in 2018.

Pat was a hard working man his whole life. He completed his electrician apprenticeship with the IBEW. He worked for many years as an electrician, ending his career with the on-site construction team at Sandia National Labs. Outside of his job, Pat could be found mopping floors, cooking burgers, moving chairs, and being a handyman wherever he went. He enjoyed bike riding, hiking, and photographing nature. He visited grandkids often, and helped with Grief Share at Hope Church.

Pat will be remembered for his unassuming and steadfast nature. Those who had the privilege of knowing him likely remember his gentle and supportive presence. Pat was the backbone for his wife and family.
