Obituary

Martha King Patterson was born to Carrie Beulah and Issac King in Orrville, Alabama January 6, 1925 . She grew up, attended school, and confessed Christ at an early age.  When she became an adult, Martha moved to Bessemer AL and then later to Bronx NY. Martha enjoyed the city life and it was there that she met and married John Patterson. They spent many beautiful years together. Martha was blessed with five children, Virginia Williams "Doll Baby"; John Patterson, Jr. "Ju-Man" (deceased).; Issac Patterson; Barbara Patterson, and Lee Patterson.  Martha loved her family and her family continued to grow in love with grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

In early 1990's, Martha moved with Ju-Man to Birmingham Alabama to be close to her brother, Willie James Rankin. Together they attended Brantley Chapel C.C.P. Church in Bessemer.  Martha was a strong woman who cared for her son, Ju-Man, in the home until she was no longer able. Martha was blessed with a beautiful long life until her health started to fail her at age 93. She was strong but not able to overcome her weaknesses. Her strength gave way, her anchors pulled up, and she quietly sailed away into her Lord's arms at 5:30 AM Tuesday, May 14, 2019.

She leaves to mourn two daughters, Virginia "Doll Baby" Williams and Barbara Patterson of Bronx NY; two sons, Isaac Patterson and Lee Patterson of Bronx NY;; four sisters, Rose McGee, Lula Sanders. Ginny Williams of Bronx NY; and Katherine Harrison (Carlton) of Lackawawen, PA.; eight grandchildren, ten great grandchildren, two great great grandchildren, a host of nieces, nephews, relatives, friends...and a special devoted niece of Birmingham, Vernita Rankin Lovett.
