Mark G. Patterson
March 9, 1969 — February 10, 2015
Mark Patterson, much-loved father, son, and friend, passed away February 10, 2015, in Aurora,Colorado. He was born March 9, 1969, in Urbana, Illinois.
In college, Mark once carried a business card that read, "Bartender, Soldier of Fortune, Casual Hero." He was much more: a lover of music and animals; a student of history, science, culture, and art; a master at games; and a sensitive soul. He played the trombone, fished, and made great beer and barbecue. He particularly enjoyed his red 1965 Land Rover, "Rhino."
Mark grew up in Denver and attended Regis Jesuit High School. He went on to make homes in Boulder, Colorado; San Francisco; Bloomington, Indiana; Chicago; and Aurora. He graduated from DePaul University in Chicago with a degree in computing. Professionally, he worked as an application developer for the City and County of Denver. Previously, he was a senior systems mengineer for Travelport, a software developer for Tyler Technologies, a senior developer for
Avow Systems, a systems analyst and programmer for The College of American Pathologists.
Above all, he loved his three children – Charles Cecil, William Galen, Beatrix Cara – who survive him. He is also survived by his parents, Garry and Carolyn Patterson; his friend and former wife of 17 years, Marcy Neth, and her entire family; aunt Barbara Moore; uncle Scott Moore; cousin Suzy Patterson; grandmother Elaine Moore; many friends from the different stages of his life; and his bearded dragon lizard, Garry Jr.
He was preceded in death by his grandparents Don "Grampy" Moore; Charles "Pat" Patterson and Marion Patterson He is and will be missed.
A memorial service is planned for February 28, 2015 at Parkview Congregational Church in Aurora, Colorado at 4PM.
