Theodora Patton

Theodora “Theo” Patton of Hartford passed quietly away Jan. 26, 2016. Over her 92 years, she served in many capacities, including business administration and cook, but more than any of those, she was a dedicated homemaker, wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was born Theodora Sanchez on Sept. 1, 1923, in Belen, New Mexico, where she lived for much of her life. She was one of 10 children of Alfred and Carlotta Sanchez, and she loved New Mexico dearly.
