Rexford B. "Rex" Patrick

Rexford B. “Rex” Patrick, Sr., 81, of Germantown, OH died Friday, August 31, 2018 at Maple Garden Rehabilitation & Care in Eaton. Born on January 27, 1937 in Middletown, OH he was the son of the late Beecher & Kathleen (Bishop) Patrick. Rex was a self-employed brick mason in the area for many years. He was an exceptionally talented guitar player and founder of the “Rex Patrick and the County Legends”. He winged his way to heaven with the words to “Peace in the Valley” still on his lips. Loved by all and will be missed by many, but our hope lies in the words he taught us – “We Shall Meet Someday”
