Patrick "Pat" William Pyke, aged 64, of Dayton, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on December 15, 2024. Born on January 14, 1960, in Fort Thomas, Kentucky, Pat was the cherished son of Art Pyke and Ruth James (nee Prichard). He was a dedicated electrician, contributing his skills to the Northern Kentucky area for many years, and he took great pride in being a graduate of Dixie High School.

Pat had a passion for the outdoors, often finding joy in fishing and camping at Red River Gorge. His hobbies included flying remote control airplanes and boating, activities through which he shared many memorable moments with his family and friends.

He is reunited in heaven with his loving mother, Ruth James, and his father, Art Pyke. Pat leaves behind his devoted wife, Mildred "Millie" Pyke (nee Bowles); his daughter, Krystal (Nathan) Ransdell; his son, Patrick Pyke; as well as his brothers, Mike, Steve, and Tom Pyke. He is also remembered fondly by many close friends and extended family members.

A visitation will be held Thursday, December 19, 2024 from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals, & Receptions, 4350 Dixie Hwy, Erlanger, KY 41018. There will be no funeral service.
