The family of Patricia “Mimi” Camp will celebrate her beautiful life of 79 years at 3:00 PM on Tuesday, 26, 2022, at the Chapel at Lake Ridge Chapel and Memorial Designers in Lubbock, Texas. The burial service will be at 2:00 PM on Saturday, July 30th at Waukomis Cemetery in Waukomis, OK. With the strength of a tiger, she passed peacefully on to eternal life on Thursday, July 21, 2022, and is now pain-free within the heavenly gates.

Pat was born to Albert and Ruby Carter in Jonesboro, AR on February 23, 1943. In 2nd grade, they moved to Waukomis, OK. It was during this year she met little Johnny Camp, who happened to be the only child in the whole 2nd grade she did not want to invite to her 8th birthday party…but of course, her mother insisted. Little did she know this little boy would soon grow to be her best friend, protector, father of her children, dance partner, and love of her life.

This inseparable pair began their love story dating through high school, then attended Phillips University and married on April 13, 1963. A more dedicated couple would be hard to find. They each became the other’s right hand taking care of every need. There’s hardly a dance floor that didn’t experience the graceful moves of these two. Pat’s full-time job became making a warm and loving home for her husband and three boys. She was a mother like no other and put her whole heart into her family and made a celebration out of every special moment.

Pat’s greatest expression of love was through her kitchen. Birthdays, holidays, celebrations, special dinners. If she loved you, she cooked for you. If you needed help, she would be there, with a coffee cake on the side. She was never happier than when feeding a full table of family or friends (which would, of course, be decorated beautifully). The only joy that could even come close would be her sitting at a slot machine on a hot streak.

Pat’s abundant zest for life was contagious. Her desire to make every moment fun brought light to others and touched many lives. Spontaneous. Ornery. Fun-loving. Patricia, Patty, Pat, Peanut Patty, Mom, Mimi will be greatly and sorely missed, well-loved, and always remembered.

Survivors include her husband, John Camp III; sons, Darrin (Julia) Camp, and Matthew (Kristine) Camp; daughter-in-law, Yoon Jung Lee; and grandchildren, John Happy Camp, Madison Camp, Kate Camp, Claire Camp, Patrick Camp, Britney Snyder and Vaughn Camp.

Pat was preceded in death by her son, John Gregory Camp, and her parents, Albert and Ruby Carter.

We invite you to view the live-streamed service if unable to attend and to sign her virtual guestbook here on this page.

Thinking about Pat today - She was a very dear friend. We made loads of memories at movies, dinners, and trips. Her sense of beauty and style along with her always taking the time and effort to help and give to others will always be remembered. She is greatly missed.

Pat, was such a dear friend and a cheerleader many times in my life. I met her and John and the boys at Angel Fire, when I was twenty one. There began forty plus years of friendship, travel, skiing and long talks on the phone which began when John and Pat decided to moved to Lubbock. She never missed my birthday with a call and a birthday card until last month when I knew something was terribly wrong. I always addressed her to my friends as the “energizing bunny” she always came back with vigor and spunk. This time God called her home, “Our Loss, Pat’s Gain” !!! She will be a missing part of my life. Love to all of you may you find God’s peace and comfort. Laynie

We were so sorry to hear about Pat. We know she will be greatly missed. Such good memories of when our kids were growing up together!

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

So sorry for your loss. Praying for your family.

My prayers are with you, John, as well as your family. I pray for comfort and peace. I will miss running into you and Pat at Joyce’s. I always enjoyed our visits and was amazed at Pat’s attitude. She always put on her happy face, even when she was in pain. You were so good to her and enabled her to go and do things that were important to her. I enjoyed reading your love story. You two have been a part of each other’s lives for a long time. God bless!

Pat was like a grandmother I didn’t have. She was such an incredible lady and I’m honored to have had her in my life. My deepest sympathies to you, John, and to your family. Desirae

What an absolute joy knowing Pat has been to me. One year I made some special French cookies for Christmas gifts. Of all of the people I made the cookies for, Pat was the only person who expressed her appreciated for the time and difficulty that went in to making the cookies. She later invited me over to show her how to make them and we had so much fun! My husband and I worked for John and Pat for years and she and John never missed an opportunity to thank us and show their appreciation for the work that we had done. The love John and Pat had for each other was so obvious. Pat will be greatly missed!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire Camp family.
