Beloved husband, father, and grandfather, Patrick "Pat" Orman Reardon, passed away peacefully in his home on March 23, 2024, at the age of 84. He is survived by his wife of 61 years Carol Jean Cox Reardon; daughters Amy Reardon and Wendy Reardon; grandson Jeremy Reardon and fiancée Amber Smith; granddaughter Ashley Jones and husband Eric Jones. He is preceded in death by his parents Frantz Reardon and Dorothy Zesch Reardon, brother Tommy Reardon and nephew Will Reardon.

Patrick was born in Mason, Texas on August 13, 1939. His childhood instilled a lifelong connection to and passion for agriculture and wildlife. After marrying Carol Jean Cox of San Marcos, Texas in 1963, he would go on to graduate with pride from Texas A&M University with a Ph.D. in Range Science in 1972. His professional career was mostly spent at Chaparrosa Ranch in Zavala County where he managed habitat for Santa Gertrudis cattle and whitetail deer. While there, Pat and Carol Jean raised their two daughters in Uvalde, Texas. In 2002, Pat returned home to Mason, Texas where he and Carol Jean built their retirement home "on the hill" and continued their decades long involvement in church, community, and service to others.

The memorial service will be held at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, April 13, 2024, at First United Methodist Church, Mason, Texas. The family asks that, in lieu of flowers or other gifts, donations be made to Steady Steps Children's Ministry of Mason.
