Pat (Patricia Copple) Whitlock, 95, passed away Thursday, January 28, 2024 at the Hemingford Community Care Center.
Pat was born January 15th, 1929 in Greeley, Nebraska to Leonard S. Copple and Margaret Binderup Copple. She joined her sister Jo Ellen and the family then moved to Alliance in 1930. Pat attended the Alliance Schools. She married Bob Whitlock on June 1, 1947 at her family's home in Alliance. This city girl took off her city cap and put on a farm cap, she became all country. Pat learned: to cook (excelling in it), garden and preserve foods, care for livestock, drive a stick shift pickup, haul grain to the elevator during harvest, hauled her kids and horses to high school rodeo's, became an R.N. at the age of 55 and was an accomplished seamstress and quilter. In later years Pat and Bob enjoyed hosting friends for a few games of cribbage. The Lord Jesus, family and friends were precious to her.
Bob and Pat were married for 76 and ½ years. Bob believed she was the only woman in the world who could have put up with him for that long of a time.
Preceding her in death were her parents, sisters and brothers in law Jo Ellen and Mac McCullah, Charlene and Duane Rickard.
