Our beloved father, Patrick Cleveland, 95, passed away peacefully on Jan. 29, 2021.
He was born in Pontiac, Michigan, in 1925. Patrick moved to Wisconsin and married the love of his life Patricia Meagher, and after her death, married his second wife, Ruth Campton. Dad was a man who loved to make people smile and would lend a hand wherever he could.
Pat worked many jobs throughout his life and retired after more than 30 years at Borg Fabrics. Dad bowled and golfed locally and around the Midwest. He was a member of the Midwest Deaf Golf Association Hall of Fame and golfed until the age of 94 with MDGA. He belonged to Southern Lakes Association of the Deaf (SLAD) for more than 50 years, always active and helping where he was able.
Together Patrick and Patricia raised six children. Dad is survived by five of his six children, his many grandchildren, great grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren.
Patrick was preceded in death by both his wives, one son, several grandchildren, his parents and all of his siblings. Services will be held at a later date.
Donations in Patrick Cleveland’s memory can be made to Southern Lakes Association of the Deaf, 715 E Wisconsin St, Delavan, WI 53115.
Monroe Funeral Home in Delavan is assisting the family.
