July 3, 1930 - September 21, 2017
CWO4, retired, Patrick Dennison Liggett, 87, former resident of Normangee & College Station, died at his home in Southport, FL, Thursday, 21 September 2017 of natural causes. Private family services will be planned for a later date.
He was born fourth of ten children to Milford George "Bill" and Mildred Sella "Peg" Rada Liggett on 03 Jul 1930 in Stamford, SD.
Living a full life of adventure, he was aided for 20 years by the Army/Air Force. Retiring at only 37, he worked with Nu-Way Oil and managed an airport in Roseburg, OR. When life's circumstances brought him to Texas, he met and married the love of his life, Helen.

Besides his parents, he was preceded in death by siblings, Beverly Jean Liggett & Carol Ann Liggett Jackson; Earl Lewis Liggett, Wayne Arthur Liggett, Larry Guen Liggett & David George Liggett; and stepdaughter, Ramona Darce Cornett.
