Bob Pattock, age 87, of Dorr, died Friday, Nov. 6.
He proudly served in the United States Army during the Korean conflict. He retired from the Allegan County Road Commission after many years of service.
He was quick-witted and will be remembered for his great sarcastic sense of humor. Coon hunting, fishing, being outdoors, mowing neighborhood lawns, and spending time with his family were his favorite things to do.
He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Arlene; their children Don (Marla) Pattock, Amy (Mike) Cornell; grandchildren Chris (Keriann) Pattock, Kyle (Holly) Pattock, Samantha (Marcus) Carlstrom, Michael (Hannah) Cornell, Jake Cornell; great-grandchildren Marley, Lennon, Jude, Milo, Isaiah, Emilia, and Alyvia; and sister-in-law, Rosemary Holzgen.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Ben and Pearle Pattock, and step-mother, Elnay Pattock.
A private family mass will be held at 1 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 10, at St. Mary’s Visitation Catholic Church, 2459 146th Ave., Byron Center, with Fr. Christopher J. Derda as celebrant. A livestream link will be added soon.
The family will receive relatives and friends from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 9, at Kubiak-Cook Funeral Home, 4330 18th St., Dorr.
