Beautiful Betty Elaine Patterson served the purpose of her creation here on earth for ninety-five years. She left her mortal life on November 15, 2020 at the Sunrise Living Center in Sandy.
Betty was born September 23, 1925 in Salt Lake City to Leslie Earl Jackson and Sarah Leona Mortensen. She graduated from West High School in 1944 and married Dale Dunroe in 1946. When Dale passed, she married her sweetheart, partner, and love of her life, Jack Patterson, in 1952. She supported both spouses as they sacrificed and served honorably in the U.S. Army.
Betty was preceded in death by her parents and eight brothers and sisters. She is survived by her brothers, Kirby and Jerry Jackson; sister, Eva Watson; sons, Rocky Dunroe (Judy) and Jack Patterson, Jr. (Peggy); and daughter, Lori Barr (Craig). She has ten beautiful granddaughters, twenty-five great-grandchildren, six great-great-grandchildren, and one very special granddaughter, Corinn.
Betty was a member of the LDS Church and enjoyed her visiting teachers, reading stories in the Ensign, taking the sacrament, and receiving priesthood blessings. Betty was blessed with posterity, as she recognized the Savior's hand as it provided wonderful miracles every day, right before her eyes. She was a true example and disciple of Christ, as she served with love, tenderness, mercy, and without judgement.
Her positive attitude and gift of the spirit, resonated with everyone she came in contact with. Betty had comfort and peace during these more difficult days of her life and found fulfillment as her family and loved ones gathered around her. When she passed into the spirit world, her sweetheart grabbed her hand and was welcomed with those who love her, as there were many more in Heaven than those of us still living on the earth. Many times, she shared her gratitude for the caregivers and hero's that took care of her at the Sunrise Living Center. We express special thanks to the nurses and especially her friend, Rodger.
We will truly miss you, Mom, but your legacy of long service and example of being good and faithful will live on for eternity.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 21, 2020 at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 East Dimple Dell Road (10600 South), Sandy.
