Patrick Wilks Obituary

Published by Vaca Hills Chapel Funeral Home - Vacaville on Aug. 25, 2017.
Patrick was born on February 5, 1955 and passed away on Friday, August 18, 2017. Patrick was a resident of California at the time of passing. He attended school in Billings, MT and worked in his father's sign company while learning the trade. When there are people observing a crane lift, it is common to hear "How did he learn to operate a crane like that?" Pat proudly served his country as a Staff Sergeant E6 Armored Calvary in the Army CA & MT National Guard 1973-1983.

He gave me my first lecture about boys! None of this or none of that if you don't have a ring on that finger young lady!! That's why I have dogs instead of a man!
