It is with deep sorrow and much love that we mourn the passing of Dennis Wayne Patterson, 66, on Thursday, September 22, 2022 in the comfort of his home.
Per the Patterson's request, there will be no service.
A lifetime resident of Pontotoc, Mr. Patterson was born March 22, 1956, the son of the late Carl Wayne Patterson and Jimmie Lou McCollums Patterson. His passion as a truck operator, a life he loved, unfortunately came to a halt due to health reasons which hit him hard.
Mr. Patterson had a great sense of humor and always made a person laugh even as his health declined. A strong and tough person, he struggled everyday to do even simple things with tremendous effort. He lived a hard life but learned many valuable lessons and became a better man.
A Christian, Mr. Patterson had faith in the Bible's hope that you can live forever and where death is not the end. He will be missed every second of every day.
Survivors include his wife Lesa Russell Patterson, two daughters, Brandy Sloan (Chris) and Susie Stusty (Donna), a son, Mikey Shelton, six grandchildren, Mason, Alivia, Charlie Grace, Amber, Dillon and Tray, five sisters, Amy Patterson, Caty Nix, Amanda Bryson (Eric), Melissa Sprayberry (Richard) and Debra Patterson, one brother, Dean Patterson and his constant loyal companion and best friend, "Simba".
He was also preceded in death by two sisters, Phyllis Walker and Carol Stewart, two brothers, William Paul and John Kevin Patterson, two nephews, Brad and Chad Ruth and a brother in law, Bobby Joe Nix.
