Harold "Bud" Patterson

In loving memory of Harold "Bud" Patterson, born on July 29th, 1961, in Adrian, MI and raised in Brooklyn, MI. After a tough battle with cancer, Bud embraced eternal peace to be with Christ in heaven on January 18th, 2025, at the early age of sixty-three.
Bud was a brilliant soul and touched many lives personally and professionally with his kindness, genius, sense of humor, optimism, work ethic, and genuine care for others.
He was a devoted husband, father, son, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, and friend to many. His passion for life manifested in a diverse set of interests including hiking, biking, martial arts, camping, fishing, video games, flying small aircraft, scuba diving, traveling, reading, music, playing the drums and singing! Bud, a person of remarkable presence, will be profoundly missed.
Bud is survived by his wife, Marta; sons, Jacob, and Luke; sister, Cathy Hulburt; her husband, Roger Hulburt; and their children and grandchildren. He was very close to Marta's siblings who loved him like a brother; Charles and wife Fumi and children; Tana and husband Keith and children; Kyri and daughter Alex and children; Erik and wife Nina and children.
