Pat Barten passed away suddenly on December 1, 2020.
His untimely passing is an incredible loss to not only his family and friends, but the entire community. Pat Barten was an amazing person, an incredibly generous, caring, compassionate, and hardworking soul. Anyone that was blessed to meet him knew what a special person he was. His dedication to his craft helped build some of the most amazing restaurants, stores, and businesses in the Corridor. He touched everyone he knew and was loved by so many. This tragic and sudden loss is heartbreaking.
Pat is survived by his six children; Kara, Abby, Jacob, Noah, Joe, and Catherine. Pat worked incredibly hard and devoted his entire life to his children. Pat LOVED his family. Nothing put a smile on his face like it did when he talked about his kids. All six of them brought so much pride and joy to him in very unique ways. They were his life, and his legacy. We are asking for your help in support of a scholarship fund for Joe and Catherine who have yet to graduate High School. Please donate as a memorial to Pat for their future. It was his ultimate desire for all of his children to have an education, and incredibly important to him that all had the all the opportunities to succeed. Help keep his legacy alive and the continuation of his vision by donating to this educational fund.
The Bartens are an incredible group of people in large part because of Pat. His children lost their father, their role model, their mentor, and their best friend all in one day. Help this family out in remembrance of this remarkable man and father who left our world far too soon.
