Our family is saddened to announce the passing of our mother, Patricia Wood. She was surrounded by family and friends. She is survived by her daughter, Teresa Purvis, of Costa Mesa, CA, and son, Clinton Vocke (wife, Eileen), of Ojai, CA. Mom also leaves eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren; also left is her great friend and neighbor, Jackie Sneed. She lost her son, James Vocke, grandson, Matthew Vocke, and great-granddaughter, Sara Gallegos, to her great sorrow. She was also preceded in death by first husband, Harvey Vocke, and second husband, Bill Wood. We wish to express our gratitude to the staff of Hoag Hospital and St. Joseph's Hospice for making Mom comfortable in her last days. Mom will be going home to Holly, CO. She will rest eternally on the prairie.
