Kenneth Patridge Obituary
Kenneth Robert "K.R." Patridge, age 68, an extremely devoted husband and family man, went to our Father in Heaven on Friday, January 18, 2019. He worked for Ernst Concrete for 40 years, being given many bonuses throughout that time for perfect attendance and safety. An avid softball player, he started playing at 18 and excelled to the point that he was voted into the Columbus Softball Hall of Fame in 2005. He also was a former Columbus City Ping Pong Champion. K.R was a guy that had a great sense of humor and a very quick wit. He was very intelligent and was a big Jeopardy fan. Survived by wife of 46 years, Debra J. Patridge; children, Stephanie A. (Marion) Little, Bradley J. Patridge and Amanda K. (Kyle) Walker; grandsons, Ryan, Drew and Max. Friends may call at JERRY SPEARS FUNERAL HOME, 2693 W. Broad St., Wednesday 4-7 PM. Graveside service and interment will be held 1 PM Thursday at Green Lawn Cemetery.
