Patty J. Reese, age 84 and longtime resident of
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, passed away on Monday,
August 28, 2017.
Patty Joann Austin was born on October 21, 1932
in Bartlesville. She was the daughter of Thomas
Clarence Austin and Elmira Dice (Utterback)
Austin. She was a 1950 graduate of College High

In 1952, Patty and E. R. "Dick" Reese were
united in marriage. They were married for 59
years prior to his death on August 3, 2011.
Patty was employed with the TRW Reda Pump Co.,

couple of years when she had a short residency
in Chicago (1952-1954) were spent at the

After retirement, Patty and Dick were very
active in traveling; scuba diving, motorcycling
and many other activities. She was not afraid to
try anything and never let the danger bother
her. She was also devoted to her family and
loved every minute spent with them.
Patty lived a Christian life, always helping
others. She was a devoted member of the Matoaka
Baptist Church where she spent countless hours
volunteering her time in any area, as well as
preparing food and supervising the food
preparation for the many funeral services and
other functions of the church. In fact, she was
very active in these endeavors up to just weeks
before her death.

daughter, Cheryl Wheeler of Tulsa, Oklahoma; her
son, Mike Reese and his wife, Lisa, of Noel,
Missouri; grandchildren, Sam Wheeler and his
