Patricia Uris

Patricia Uris (née Blum) is a minor character in the second season of It. She was the wife of Stanley Uris, living with him in Atlanta, Georgia.

Early Life
Patricia grew up in a Jewish family, and had experienced her fair share of antisemitic harassment. She Graduated in 1972, and married Stanley Uris on August 19, 1972. Her parents were unsure about the marriage, due to their young age as well as their financial situation at the time. Both Patty and Stan soon found employment at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, with Stan becoming a successful accountant. Patricia and Stan eventually afforded themselves a large house located near the Bank, and Stan could tell she was very proud they could afford a house that big. Patricia and Stan soon intended to have children together, but desperately struggled to conceive one for three years. They would even seek medical attention to see if one or both of them were infertile, but were surprised to find out neither of them were. By 1985, Patty and Stan were considering adopting a child.

1985
In 1985, Stan receives a phone call from Mike Hanlon, one of his old friends from Derry, Maine. Mike tells him that Pennywise, the being that had terrorised Derry and them as children had returned, and reminds Stan of the Blood Oath he made as a child.

Patty notices Stan in a state of shock and confusion. Stan retreats to his study, and locks the door. In the early hours of the next morning, Stan leaves their bed and tells Patty that he's taking a bath. Patty finds it odd that Stan is taking a bath so late at night, but believes he's getting ready for a business trip. When she wakes up later in the day, she notices Stan's watch laying on his bedside table, and goes to check on Stan in the bathroom, only to find that Stan has killed himself in the bathtub by slitting his wrists, having written "IT" on the wall beside him in his own blood, and is left horrified and alarmed by the sight.

Mike Hanlon soon calls their home again, asking if Stan was on his way to Maine. Patty informs him that Stan took his own life, blaming Mike for his suicide. After Stan's body is removed from their home, Patty plans to move out of the house and out of the state.

Trivia

 * In the It Novel, Patty and Stan's infertility is implied to be caused by It itself, or as a result of Stan's PTSD from being nearly killed by It in 1958.
 * This is changed for the TV series to be simply infertility on Stan's part.
