Sunrise (Psalm 118:24)
Patricia Ann McMillon Hampton was born on Thursday, November 19, 1953 to Mr. & Mrs. Joel & Earlease Doris Ponder McMillon in Saginaw, MI. Early in life, she accepted the Lord’s gracious Gift of Salvation for all who believe, and received the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. Patricia was a gracious, kind, classy lady who embraced her womanhood and generously shared her God-given gifts with others. She was exceptionally family oriented, and learned to cook at an early age. It gave her great joy to bless her family and friends throughout her life on holidays and other special occasions, with meals seasoned with her love that will never be forgotten. As a young person, Patricia developed a passion for reading, and her love for literature was the foundation for her extensive vocabulary, gift for writing poetry, and her profound ability to teach and preach the Word of God. She willingly committed her life to be used by God to bless others, and would often be found in deep meditative thought and extensive intercessory prayer sessions, seeking God on behalf of others. All of her life Patricia possessed a kind, sweet and benevolent spirit. She was known for extending the generosity of the Lord to those in need.
Patricia was a product of Saginaw Public School District where she participated in various activities. In her junior year of high school (1970) Patricia won the coveted Miss Autumn Leaves Beauty Pageant, bringing much joy and admiration to her family and friends. She graduated from Saginaw High School in 1971 as a Mighty Trojan, and matriculated at Eastern Michigan University.
Noonday (Genesis 2:21-24)
After a period of time, Patricia met and fell in love with the love of her life - Mr. Randal Curtis Hampton of Flint, MI. They were married on December 10, 1993 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Together, they have enjoyed a fruitful life - traveling together, taking family fishing excursions, going on family boat outings just for fun, and spending relaxing evenings together watching old movies. Pat truly enjoyed being a wife and mother. She took special care of her home and loved decorating inside and out. Her immaculate flower beds and beautiful plants were evidence of her “green thumb” and like everything else, she shared this gift with family and friends.
