George Patterson was born April 8, 1925 to Frank and Beatrice Patterson in Oroville, where he lived for many years.

George passed away July 16, 2012 after a long illness in Wenatchee where he had made his home. He loved to come back to Oroville to visit his family and friend, Aileen Loney, who we all called our sister.

George was preceded in death by his parents; three brothers: Arnold, Edward and Gordon Patterson; and three sisters: Bernice Fleming, Lenore Wilson and Alice Range.

He is survived by four sisters: Madge Haney, Wanda Haney, Madree Burnett and Marlene Patterson.

Rest in peace, we love you.
