Terence Lee Patstone, Sr., of North Berwick, Maine went home to be with the Lord after a lengthy illness on Saturday, November 14, 2020 surrounded by his loving family.
He was born April 16, 1944, the eleventh child of sixteen born to William J., Sr., and Myrtle (Dunn) Patstone of York, ME. He was predeceased by his parents, two brothers and four sisters. He is survived by five brothers, four sisters; his loving wife of 55 years, Shirley E. (Staples) Patstone; son Terence Lee Jr., and his sons, Raef and Quinn; daughter Jennifer Sprague and husband David and their daughters, Abigail and Kailee: daughter, Amy Stevens and husband Scott and their sons, Bryce and Brett as well as many in-laws, cousins, nieces and nephews.
Terry was a graduate of York High School. He went on to become a draftsman at Hussey Seating Company and Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. During his retirement years, he was a school bus drive for MSAD #60 and drove trolley in Ogunquit in the summers.
Terry was past master of the Yorkshire Lodge #179 A.F.&A.M. and involved in the Scottish Rite Kora Temple. He was a member of the MOALS (Maine Obsolete Auto League). Terry was a member of the New Covenant Baptist Church where he was a trustee for many years and went on many mission trips where he served as cook. He also volunteered for the North Berwick Rescue Squad.
Terry was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. He loved to cook and bake, but his real joy came from sharing what he made with others. He also enjoyed driving his 1928 Model A, hunting, fishing, gardening and playing cards and games. He was a jack-of-all trades who could fix just about anything. He was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He was loved by many and will be missed by all.
His family would like to thank Hospice of Southern Maine for their kind and compassionate care.
