Patricia A. Dean, 67, of Midland TX, passed away on November 8 2022.
Patricia was born on October 23 1955 in Odessa, TX to Jorene Harris, and Kenneth Poole Sr. She had two children early in her life Chad and Brandy Dean that she loved unconditionally. She attended New Mexico Junior College where she graduated with distinguished honors and an associates in applied science. She remarried in 1991 to her loving husband Fernando Hernandez. In 1983 she started working at Texaco as a roustabout/production clerk until 1995. She also worked at KRP Rental & Trucking where she was a safety coordinator, hot shot driver and Field salesperson from 2002 to 2015. Patricia loved taking time away to go to Ruidoso, NM with friends and loved ones. You could always find her in the backyard watering her garden which she cherished. Probably her favorite hobby most of all was being a grandmother to her 3 grandchildren. Her grandchildren were here pride and joy and she made sure everyone knew how proud she was of them.
