Born June 21, 1940 in Calvin, she was the daughter of Bee and Lillian (Peters) Blaylock. Carla married Thomas Roy Patterson on May 31, 1956 in Durant. Carla held many jobs throughout her life; but her favorites were mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. Carla loved to take her grandchildren on trips all over America from Nevada to Missouri in her Chevrolet pickup lovingly known as "Red" by her grandchildren. She enjoyed going to bingo to meet and socialize with new and old friends and never meet a stranger. Roy and Carla ran a very successful greyhound farm in Longdale, Okla. Carla loved the challenge of raising and training the puppies, and the reward of watching them run on the tracks. Roy and Carla lived for many years in Longdale before retiring in Cartwright.
