Mary Christine Patrick Obituary

Mary Christine "Teenie" Patrick (nee Powell) of Liberty Twp., OH, earned her crown of jewels on February 18, 2024 at the age of 96. A gift indeed, Teenie was born on Christmas Eve in 1927 to Ancil and Lillie Mae (nee Snowden) Powell.

The last of her siblings, Teenie served as the matriarch for not just her children and grandchildren, but for all her nieces and nephews as well. A servant of God, Christine was an active member of Breiel Church. Over the years she served in numerous ministries there and elsewhere in the Church of God. As a charter member of the Liberty Twp. Historical Society and the Liberty Twp. Garden Club, Teenie created many lifelong friendships. Perhaps she is best known for baking the best sourdough bread known to man. Teenie will be forever loved and cherished by all that knew her.

Christine was preceded in death by: parents, Ancil and Lillie Mae Powell; husband, Earl Byrum Patrick; son, Bill Patrick; siblings, Lola Mastin, Lizzie Brookshire, Leora Witt, Zella Berry, and Glynn Powell; and grandson-in-law, Jeffrey Friedman.

Christine is survived by: children, Christy (Johnny) Henry, Byrum (Brian Hickey) Patrick, and Lisa (Paul) Gormas, daughter-in-law, Ann Margaret Patrick; grandchildren, David (Beki) Warren, Karen (Sue Henry) Patrick, Angela (KC) Garvey, Sonia Bach, Roger Henry, Susan (Lisa) Patrick, Sara Patrick, Annie (Justin) Cantrell, Laura (Jamie) Jeltema, Katie (Jason) Kirklin, Angie Gormas, and Christy Gormas; numerous great-grandchildren; and many loving family members and friends.
