Patrick “GG” Peña, 36

Patrick “GG” Juan Peña, 36, husband of Amanda Brooke (Nazaryk) Peña, passed away sadly on Saturday, May 2, 2026, at Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital.

Born in South Elgin, Illinois, he was the son of Patricio and Patricia (Lara) Peña.

Patrick was a hard worker as a property manager. He was great at fixing things. He even had a side business fixing lawn mowers at his house. Patrick enjoyed collecting things. He often picked up new hobbies and would begin collecting. He got his son into collecting Pokémon cards recently and watching old Pokémon Cartoon episodes. In addition to Pokémon, he enjoyed collecting sneakers, hats, and had an extensive Blu Ray Collection.

Patrick loved his Milwaukee tools that he used for work. He enjoyed taking the kids shopping to flea markets and yard sales, and smoking ribs and meats on their smoker at home. He was very good at smoking meats that he enjoyed with his family. Patrick was very proud of his Mexican/American heritage and was very patriotic. He also enjoyed getting into different TV shows with his wife and children and often binged seasons of shows together.

Surviving along with his wife, Amanda of 14 years, are his children Catherine Alexandria Peña, Emma Madison Peña, Reagan Cecilia Peña, and Bryce Patrick Peña; brother Scott Lane, husband of Deanna; sister Jill Peña; sister Felicia Taylor, wife of Mike; and sister Alexis Stricker, wife of Christopher; his grandparents; and many cousins, aunts, uncles, and extended family.

Patrick, I’m so very sorry you have moved along beyond this realm. We were just getting to become good friends. March Madness was a wild ride and our texts were a lot of fun. Go Ilini! I already miss your positive, enthusiastic approach to life and work. Peace be with you, brother. -Steve

Hello, I enjoyed working with Patrick at Grace Lutheran, I'm the Building & Property chairperson for Grace. Early on I realized how skilled he was and was looking forward to using him for tasks that we would have normally have outside contractors doing. I am so sorry to hear about his passing and offer my deepest condolences to his entire family.
