Edward Dudley Partrick, Jr. Loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, friend and proud veteran. Died June 5, 2009 in his 88th year. Since November 2007, he and his wife, Lou Partrick, were residents of the Heritage in Raleigh, N.C. Prior to moving to Raleigh, he was a long-time resident of Wadesboro, N.C.
Born in Wilmington, N.C., September 17, 1921, Dudley was the son of Edward Dudley Partrick, Sr. and Lucy Nolan Partrick. Dudley graduated Clinton High School and UNC Chapel Hill, Class of '42. His studies there interrupted by his service in the Army in WWII. This experience forever changed his life and formed bonds of friendship and loyalty that lasted until his death. He served with honor in the 14th Armored Division—The Liberators—seeing action in France and Germany. He helped the Allied forces to break the Siegfried Line. He was awarded the Bronze Star for his service.
After the war, Dudley graduated (1945) from UNC-Chapel Hill and rose to management positions in Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, Davidson's (later Macy's) in Atlanta and Columbia, S.C., and the First National Bank of Anson County (later Southern National and BBT), from which he retired as Executive Vice President. In his personal and professional life, he was a friend and mentor, encouraging students to stay focused on their studies, providing capital to struggling farmers as well as successful businessmen. He was elected and served as a member of the Wadesboro Town Council and was proud to be a member of the Rotary Club for many years.
Dudley was just as passionate about his Catholic faith as he was his beloved Tarheels and fellow Army comrades. He was a charming, outgoing man who never met a stranger. He loved to sing and dance. His warmth, support and easy wit will be missed by all those who knew and cherished him.
Dudley is survived by his wife of 59 years, Louisa Hardison Partrick; his daughter, Lisa Steinhardt and husband John of Norwalk, Conn., and daughter Marianna Clampett and husband Bobby of Raleigh; grandchildren Anna and Nicholas Suciu; sisters Margaret Faircloth and Maude Shiverton; brothers Neil Partrick and Jerry Partrick; as well as several nieces and nephews.
