PATRICK "PAT" JOSEPH MCENTEE
Keosauqua

Patrick "Pat" Joseph McENTEE, 41, of Keosauqua, passed away Sept. 21, 2019, at his home. He was born Oct. 28, 1977, to Bob and Cindy KANE McENTEE in Des Moines, Iowa. Pat grew up in Stockport and graduated from Van Buren Community High School with the Class of 1996. He married Jenny KLETT on July 13, 2002, in Fairfield. He was self-employed and was known as a hard worker who had a great ability to fix things. He always was thinking of a new invention or solution to a problem.

Pat was close to his family. The biggest pride in his life was his children. He loved time spent with them on their countless adventures. He also had a special bond with his brothers. He referred to his brothers as being the smarts ones, but he had all the common sense. He was an Iowa Hawkeyes and Green Bay Packers fan and enjoyed watching football with his dad. He got his gift of gab, friendliness and great hugs from his Mom, Cindy.

Pat often would fondly reminisce of good drinks, good friends and good times. His friends were like family to him and he never knew a stranger. Pat loved being around children, he was known as the "tickle monster" by his nieces and nephews. He enjoyed being outside, spending time on the farm and riding the tractor. Most of all, Pat was a fun-loving guy who always was the first to help anyone. He loved his family deeply.

He is survived by Jenny McENTEE of Fairfield; his parents, Bob and Cindy McENTEE; four children, Kali and Brooke McENTEE of Edmond, Okla., and Myles and Brody McENTEE of Fairfield; a grandson, Kayden McENTEE; two brothers, Chris (Kara) McENTEE of Keosauqua and Matt (Breanne) McENTEE of Keosauqua; eight nieces and nephews, Lukas, Aidan, Lilly, MaColie, Brinly, Katelynn, Terrin and Kelly; and many aunts, uncles, cousins and great friends.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Warren and Leola McEntee and Sug (sic - Leonard Earl 'Sug') and Marilyn KANE; uncles, Tom WHITE, Bill McENTEE and Terry McENTEE; and his aunt, Peg McENTEE.

A Celebration of Life/open house will be starting at 2 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 26, at Hotel Manning in Keosauqua. Memorial contributions in Pat's honor may be made to his family for the benefit of his children and can be mailed to 915 Country Lane Dr., Keosauqua, IA 52565.
