Jerome Patoka

Jerry has gone to join his parents, Richard and Florence, and is survived by siblings; Marlene, Eugene and Marjorie.

Jerry is an uncle to six and a great-uncle to five.

Jerry is a 1970 graduate of Almond High School. His favorite subject was history.

He was a respected employee of McCain Foods for 30 years where be built lasting friendships. Jerry was a quiet, kind person who never complained or asked of others. He loved the outdoors; picking mushrooms and berries, small game hunting, an avid fisherman who enjoyed animals and children.

A bigger sports fan would be hard to find. And how many card games, with Point Beer in hand, did we play?

Also, Jerry was a weatherman who never got it wrong.

Thank you Jerry for sharing your life with us, thank you for the many memories. We will never forget.
