Don Patterson

For the short time that we knew Don, we thoroughly enjoyed his company and his dissertations at our Pikes Peak Model A Club Meetings. I can still see him bouncing along in his Model A going up Gold Camp Road with us when we saw all the Aspens turning to their golden hues. Our condolences to his family. Larry & Karen Batman

The good Doctor and I met when he volunteered to help others by enrolling in a medical clinical trial. We expanded our connection when we discovered a mutual interest in motorcycles and antique cars. Then I learned of the Doctor's skill with player pianos, languages, writing, and the list goes on. I was glad to hear Dr. Patterson was able to tour the US on his Honda cruiser, and hope his last days were comfortable.

My condolences to the family of this wonderful man. I never knew him, but my love for learning reflects on his beliefs and accomplishments. Being an educator, I would like to read his thesis. Many behavior problems overshadow our children's learning.

You never told me you were a Doctor. You never mentioned your many impressive accomplishments and efforts. You were just simple, quiet in demeanor and had a hell of a great sense of humor. You rebuilt my piano which in 5 years will be 100 years old. The player mechanism still works great. Thank you for everything and thank you for the music in our home.

My condolences to the entire family at the loss of Sara and then more recently Don. I am so glad they joined us at WVC and it was a delight to all of us who had the pleasure of having them join us. Don will be greatly missed and fondly remembered.
