Obituary

MISSOURI CITY, TX - Cornelia Patten, age 39, passed away on August 10, 2023, in Missouri City, TX. She was born on August 17, 1983, in Dover, DE, to Ontry Patten and Macaria Patten. Cornelia was a kind and generous soul with an unwavering desire to help others. She had an infectious smile and loved to laugh. She was smart, funny, and wholehearted, and people truly enjoyed being around her. Cornelia had an incredible work ethic and dedication to her job and was often recognized for it. Prior to her passing, she worked for Amazon and was seen as a rising star, garnering multiple raises and promotions in a fairly short period of time.

Cornelia's greatest passions were collecting Legos, creating amazing and delicious baked confections for family and friends, listening to music, and using her creative talent in arts and crafts to produce incredible, one-of-a-kind items. She also had a special place in her heart for dogs and took wonderful care of her late father's dog, Jazz.

Cornelia will be deeply missed by her mother, Macaria Patten, her sisters Eliza (Joe) Piotrowski, and Joanna Patten, her brothers Ontry (Janna) Patten, Macario (Tijuana) Patten, Ming Patten, Apalonio Patten, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and grandniece. She was preceded in death by her father, Ontry Patten.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in Cornelia's name to NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness).
