Wanda Patton Obituary

Wanda Holder Patton

December 17, 1929 -

February 5, 2026

Wanda Holder Patton (December 17, 1929 – February 5, 2026) left her life here to be with the Lord Jesus in heaven.

Wanda grew up on Charles Creek, North Carolina and spoke often of her fond memories of her childhood family and friends.

Wanda was a faithful, gentle soul who loved her family. She enjoyed her visits from her grandkids, watching the horses in the field and the colorful birds and flowers outside her window, and going to church.

Left to treasure her are her son Jeff, daughter-in-law Teresa, grandson Seth, granddaughter Megan, sister-in-law Donna, nieces, nephew, cousins and her brothers and sisters in Christ at Powder Branch Baptist Church.

Wanda was preceded in death by her husband Frank (Mack), her daughter Maxie, son-in-law Teddy, her brother Wade and her parents Dewey and Rittie.

A graveside service will be held at 1:00PM on Tuesday, February 10th at the Patton-Simmons cemetery with Pastor Chris Hughes officiating. Those wishing to attend the graveside service are asked to meet at the cemetery at 12:45 PM on Tuesday.

Words of sympathy may be shared with the family by visiting our website at www.hathawaypercy.com. Hathaway Percy Funeral and Cremation Services is honored to serve the Patton family. Office phone: 423-543-5544.
