Patty Sue Rieke, 79

Patty Sue Rieke, 79, passed away Jan. 18, 2024, at the Buffalo Hill Retreat.

Patty Sue, or Pas as her family called her, was born in Auburn, Indiana. She grew up on the Ox Bow Ranch near Wolf Creek, Montana. 

Pas’s love of the water, flowers, and gardening led her to the Hawaiian island of Kauai where she owned a flower farm. Missing family and Montana, she returned to the mainland and was able to enjoy the view of the water and the mountains from her home in Lakeside.

Pas is survived by Rex, Judy, Tex and Marcia Rieke, as well as several nieces and nephews. 

She was preceded in death by her beloved daughter, Tess; her brother, Ted; her sister, Dorothy; and her parents, Irvin and Hilda Rieke.
