James E. Patch passed peacefully overnight on November 18, 2023.  Jim leaves his cherished memory with a brother, two sons, a daughter, a daughter in law, eight grandchildren, and seven great grandchildren.

Jim was a proud and successful local businessman.  Our father graces us with a lasting impression and model for love and caring for others, and always putting one’s family first above all else.

Jim was predeceased by Theda - his treasured wife of 57 years.

Our family sincerely thanks with great appreciation the staff of Riverside Terrace and Beloit Regional Hospice for their care and love.

We truly value your thoughts and prayers.  Respecting Dad’s wishes, there is not a planned public service.  Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared on our website.
