Patti Jo Albritton was born June 21, 1949 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, the daughter of John and Margie Hathaway Albritton. She was a graduate of Bainbridge High School and worked as a dental assistant for Dr. Kikel in the Colquitt office. Patti was a member of Southwest Baptist Church.

Known to be full of life, Patti had a gift for making others smile. She knew early on laughter is the best medicine and gave her best effort making others giggle. Her friends, her children and her children’s friends can testify Patti was one-of-a kind. She enjoyed dancing and made sure her grandchildren learned from the best. While her fur babies (Bella, Stella & Ramsey) were her loyal companions, nothing could compare to the love for her children and grandchildren.

Survivors include her children, Shannon & Nickee Wilkinson of Bainbridge, GA, Sasha & Stephen Gainous of Thomasville, GA, and Jason & Molly Bowen also of Bainbridge, GA; her siblings, Barbara & Vance Hall of Bainbridge, GA, and Leon Bass of Maryland; and her grandchildren, Emmee, Evan, Ellaree, Madeline, MaKenna, Drew, Dalton, Jakson, and Ramsey. In addition to her parents, Patti was preceded in death by her daughter, Andrea Nikole Wilkinson.

  1. Patti was a wonderful lady, friend, and co-worker. I sat behind this lady for years an years. We talked , laughed, and shared many of lifes challenges. I wouldn’t change a minute of it. If anything maybe more time. All the “girls” were very close and we loved each other through good and bad times. RIP Patti. Fly high your job is complete.
