Remembering our Mother, Florence E. Bullock on the anniversary of her death, October 9, 2022.
Mother, it has been a year since you left us and went to Heaven. Although you are no longer here, your love and light continue to shine in our hearts. You left a big hole in our lives, but we carry on each day knowing you are still watching over us.
We miss you every second of every day, but we take comfort in knowing you are in Heaven with Daddy.
Thank you, God, for having given us such a loving and caring Mother.
Liz, Carolyn, Robert, and Brenda
Dr. David Maxwell Patrick, Professor Emeritus at the University of Southern Mississippi, was born In Indianapolis, Indiana on May 7, 1938 the fourth child of the later Cecil Callen Patrick and Russell Maxwell Patrick, all of whom have predeceased him. He died at home in Hattiesburg on 9/1/2023 with his wife, Cathy, by his side.
Dave graduated from Shortridge High School, Indianapolis, and earned a B.S. degree in Civil Engineering and Geology from Purdue University in 1962, becoming a commissioned Army officer and member of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
From Purdue, he went to the University of Missouri at Colombia, MO where he earned an M.A. in Geology in 1964. He subsequently attended the University of Oklahoma, where he earned a Ph.D in Geology in 1972.
He was an engineer for the U.S. Army and did active duty service in Germany, returning to serve in the Army Reserve in Mississippi. At the same time he was employed with the U.S. Army Engineers’ Waterways Experiment Station in Vicksburg, MS. He began his teaching career in Geology at the University of Southern Mississippi in 1974. He mentored scores of young geologists and was finally able to retire (he was too valuable at grant writing for USM to let him go!)
He is survived by his wife of 37 years, Cathy Ingram Patrick. Also surviving are stepdaughter Catharine, and her children Cameron (Megan), Grace and Davis, stepsons Todd (Stacey) children Cori (Josh), Jacob and Dalton (fiancé Makayla), Nieces Pat (Dave) Johnston, Barbara (Erv) Herman and Marjorie (Dave Bury) and a nephew Phil Irwin, as well as 8 grandnieces and nephews and 12 great-grand nieces and nephews.
