Dear Family and Friends of Dwaine:
Please accept my sincerest condolences and sympathy in the temporary loss of your husband, father, and friend. It has been a long, long time since I had personal contact with Dwaine and you his family, having left the Cleveland area in 1990. However, seeing the picture of Dwaine and Renée and that of the family is exactly how I remember him.
I am thankful for the influence he had on my life, and one day, in the near future, I hope to tell him so.

Pamela Robinson

Love you all and constantly praying for you all. 💜💜💜🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Love your Sis Pamela Robinson (North Smyrna Congregation)

Even though I never met him, Darren always spoke well of his father and would jokingly laugh at some of his behavior. I look forward to meeting him in the new world. I am so sorry for the loss of a father and a husband and Amy Brother
May Jehovah comfort each and everyone of you as you look forward to the resurrection when we can all see him again. ❤️

A good name is better than good oil . Dwaine Patterson Sr has made a good name with Jehovah . He has made a good name with all that knew him and grew to love him. Rest now Dwaine and we will see you soon.

Vallon and Carol Mills

In the midst of our grief we can sometimes lose sight of the light at the end of the tunnel. As Jehovah’s people we are not exempt from the feelings of profound sadness and sorrow that accompany the death of someone we love. What we do know is that our loving heavenly Father is there to hold our hands and guide us through that darkness. He will always do that for us, his earthly children. So while you grieve now and we grieve with you, we also know that this is temporary. Soon you will see your loved one and never have to lose him again. Until then, accept our heartfelt condolences, our love and prayers!

To our brother Darren Patterson and family,

We are deeply sorry for the loss of our dear brother Dwaine Patterson. We send our love from the Thomas family and pray that Jehovah's Holy Spirit will safeguard you all and comfort you during this tough time. We look forward to a time where Revelations 21:3 and 4 will be fulfilled and we will welcome all of our loved ones back with open arms. We had the pleasure of meeting brother Dwaine Patterson twice at north smyrna congregation when he visited and we enjoyed our conversation with him. We could tell he was a spiritual man and surely we knew because his son Darren has been a good inspiration and help to our congregation and sets a fine example. Brother Dwaine Patterson is in Jehovah's memory and he will surely be missed.
Love, Michael and Erika Thomas and Family

Most of you probably don’t know me because we haven’t met yet, but I know a dear friend and I deeply sympathize with you all right now.

This Father and dear brother and friend to many lives right now in Jehovah’s thoughts.

I love you all so much even though we haven’t met yet.
Kind Regards, your brother John Reid
