Patrick Wurm Obituary
Patrick Wurm, of Lincoln County, MO, passed away Tuesday, February 11, 2025 at the age of 69. Beloved husband of Rhonda Wurm; cherished son of the late Richard and Rita Wurm; devoted father of Justin (Kristen) Wurm, Kristina (Jason) Almanza, Jarred (Nicole) Wurm and Natalie (Andy) Jones; loving grandfather of Atticus, Lucy & Rory Wurm, Parker & Otto Almanza, Wyatt & Lyla Wurm, Collin, Madeline & Patrick; dear brother of Theresa (Tim) Jackson, Michael (Sharon) Wurm, Kenny (Stacey) Wurm, Becky (Craigen) Klopstein and Timmy Wurm.
Patrick Wurm was a hardworking man who took great pride in his work as a heavy equipment operator. His career was more than just a job, it was something he truly loved. In his younger years, he worked on a sod farm and as a deckhand on a river barge, both of which gave him cherished memories that he often shared.
Patrick had a passion for fabricating, working on machines, and tinkering in the barn. Whether he was fishing, enjoying shooting sports, or spending hours farming with his dear friend, Tommy Teson, he found joy in every moment. However, his greatest love in life was his family. Nothing made him happier than spending time with his loved ones, especially taking his grandkids on "side by side" rides, creating memories they will always hold dear.
Patrick was deeply loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
Memorials may be made in Patrick's name to Shriners Hospital' Childrens Hospital.
311 Wood St., O'Fallon, MO 63366
