Patrick Crocker Obituary
He spent his early years in southwest Iowa and attended Nishna Valley High School. The family moved to Iowa City and Patrick graduated from Kirkwood Community College with a degree in Water Treatment Technology. He moved to Washington state and worked in that field until his retirement.
Patrick fulfilled his long held dream of living close to the ocean by purchasing a home in Ocean Park and remained there until his death.
He was preceded in death by his father, Everett Crocker, mother, Jean Stuhr Lemonds, stepfather, Marlin Lemonds and stepmother, Maxine Crocker.
He leaves behind 2 stepchildren, Justin Nuchana and Mary Brown, 5 remaining siblings: Susan Majerus, Thomas Crocker (Pauline), Nancy Richter (Ralph), Sarah Sottile (Ray), Christine Crocker Ochoa and many nieces and nephews who lovingly knew him as Uncle Pappy.
Patrick will always be remembered for his love of cats, sense of humor and quirky personality.
