Joan B. Jolley Patterson

September 12, 1932 - May 24, 2020

On Sunday, May 24, 2020, our precious mother and maw maw, Joan B. Jolley Patterson was healed forever from cancer. She took her last breath on earth and entered into eternity. A military wife and the mother of eight children, she made certain to have them in church each time the doors were open as their eternal souls was top priority. Joan was the true example of a prayer warrior. We always knew we could go to her with any prayer request and she would be on top of it. Joan absolutely adored her family and was so very proud of each and everyone. If you knew her you became family. Her love of animals and flowers was nothing short of amazing. She liked to see the beauty in all of Gods creations. Joan was kind, thoughtful and loved to give. She instilled in us the importance of loving everyone, no matter their race or religion and to never judge. Truly, one of the most beautiful people we’ve ever known, inside and out. Joan was a woman of tremendous faith and throughout her battle with cancer her faith in our Heavenly Father did not waiver. She will have a Graveside Service 11 a.m. Wednesday, May 27, 2020 at Marshall Memorial Gardens. Visitation will be 9:30 until 10:30 at Albertville Memorial Chapel on Wednesday before the service. Rev. Steven Swords will be officiating. Pallbearers will be her family. Mrs. Patterson is survived by her Children: Michael and Linda Sims, Bruce and Rebecca Sims, Keith and Cindy Sims, Karen Coates, Mark Patterson, Lynn and Steve Barnett, Chris Patterson, Liz and Steve Friar, 24 Grandchildren and numerous great grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her Husband: Donald T. Patterson, Parents: Gordia G. and Willie B. Jolley, Brother: Gary Jolley, Grandsons: Jeromie Sims, Joseph Sims. Albertville Memorial Chapel Directing
