K. Patrick Expires Rites Today For Former Teacher and Columnist
Rites will be held today at the home of C.C. Ward on Highland Avenue for Kelly Edison Patrick who died suddenly Tuesday morning at the home of his mother, Mrs. Harris Patrick at Gypsy, in Magoffin County.
Mr. Patrick, a former teacher in the Johnson County schools, suffered a spinal injury about sixteen years ago which left him an invalid. Inspite of his affliction which left him paralyzed and physically helpless, his cheerful disposition gave inspiration and courage to all who knew him. He kept up with current events and his perspective and views on people and world events, written from his bed, were published weekly in the Herald as "Pat's Line." This was only one of the examples of his courage during the years of his invalidism.
His friends, who kept in contact with him through his newspaper column, were his frequent visitors when he made his home in Paintsville. He was always delighted to have his friends visit him and was interested in people and their affairs, his own misfortunes never being discussed during these visits. Four years ago, he returned to his old home at Gypsy, Kentucky.
The son of Harris and Mary England, he was born in Magoffin county on December 10, 1901
His wife,Edna Ward Patrick, died on December 27,1934.
