Tommy Patterson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Callaway-Smith-Cobb Funeral Home in Marlow on Jan. 30, 2026.
Tommy Dale Patterson, a cherished father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully on January 26, 2026, at the age of 66 in Meridian, Oklahoma. Born on August 9, 1959, in Marlow, Oklahoma, Tommy grew up in a close-knit community that shaped his warm, generous spirit. The son of Troy and Evelyn Patterson, he embodied the values of hard work and dedication that he learned from his loving parents. No services are scheduled at this time, Cremation arrangements are under the direction of the Callaway-Smith-Cobb Funeral home and Cremation Services.

A proud graduate of Marlow High School, Tommy carried the lessons of his youth throughout his life, fostering a sense of pride and accomplishment in all his endeavors. He dedicated over 30 years to his craft as a carpenter, a career that not only showcased his remarkable skill and creativity but also reflected his commitment to building a strong foundation for his family and community.

Tommy's talents extended beyond his professional work. He had a passion for tinkering with old cars, a hobby that allowed him to express his artistic side and engage with fellow enthusiasts. His crafty hands were rarely still, as he found joy in creating and fixing, leaving a mark of his presence in the memories and homes of those he loved.

Family was the cornerstone of Tommy's life. He was a devoted father to his two sons, Troy and Trey Patterson, and a doting grandfather to Porter Rae Patterson. His love for his family was evident in every smile, every piece of advice, and every moment spent together. Tommy's legacy will live on through the cherished memories he created with his family, including his brother and sister-in-law, Rick and Denise Patterson, and his sister and brother-in-law, Lavonna and Steve Condit.

Tommy's life was one of service, laughter, and love. He could light up a room with his humor and had a knack for making everyone feel at home. His presence was a source of comfort and strength to his family, who will miss him deeply but take solace in the knowledge that his spirit will continue to guide them.

As we bid farewell to Tommy Dale Patterson, we celebrate a life well-lived-a life filled with passion, purpose, and an abundance of love. He has left an indelible imprint on the hearts of all who knew him, and his memory will be treasured forever. Tommy's passing is not just a moment of sorrow, but also a testament to the joy and beauty he brought to this world. He will be remembered not only for the life he led but also for the lives he touched. May he rest in peace, knowing that his legacy will endure through the generations.
