Cameron Lee Patrick

Cameron Lee Patrick, 27, of Winamac, passed away Saturday, Jan. 23. 

He was born on Nov. 19, 1993, in Winamac. Cameron graduated from Winamac Community High School in 2012 where he was a member of the wrestling team. He was also a member of Boy Scouts. After high school, he went to Ft. Sill, Oklahoma, where he attended boot camp. 

Cameron was a true gearhead. His love and passion was working on cars, especially his Nissan 300ZX. He enjoyed playing Forza and Borderlands on Xbox as well as kayaking and floating the Tippecanoe River. Cameron had a love for animals at an early age and loved his dog Bear and cat Jordan. Cameron liked to be around his friends and was always trying to make everyone laugh (he had such corny jokes). He loved spending time with his nieces and nephews. Cameron will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Survivors include his father and stepmother Richard Lee [Amy] Patrick of Culver; mother Patti [Dale] Patrick of Kokomo; brother Steven Hartwick of Winamac; sisters: Randi Hartwick of Kokomo, and Cassondra [fiancé Ethan Gniadek] Patrick of Valparaiso; stepsisters: Hana [Josh] Conley of Rochester, Erica [Steven] Nicholson of Imboden, Arkansas, and Jessica [John] Bishop of Chino Valley, Arizonia; nieces and nephews: Natalie, Ethan, Myra, Ryan, Derek and Thomas; paternal grandmother Peggy [Paul] Patrick-Childers of Knox; and paternal great-grandmother Dorothy Coad of Monterey.

In keeping with Cameron’s wishes, a celebration of life will be held at a later date.
