Baker Married: 5 September 1973 Place: Hennepin County, Minnesota Records and family state Patty's mother's name as Mary Catherine "Katie", rather than the reverse that is inscribed on her headstone. The headstone is incorrect; she never went by Mary, only Katie. Following her husband's death, Katie changed her last name to her mother's maiden name, Fontaine. *Patty's husband, Gordon Arne Flikeid's obituary, says they were married on 28 Sep 1955; however, their headstone states 17 Dec 1955. They eloped to Iowa on 28 Sept 1955, and later married in the Catholic church on 17 Dec 1955. Priest required them to live apart for a while before the church wedding would be performed. Patty was raised by her mother and stepfather, Charles Franklin "Charlie" Karkalits, but was not adopted by him. She changed her name from Marcella Grace Murphy to Patricia Clare between one and two years after she was married (used original given name on oldest child's Minnesota Birth Index). The surname, Murphy, was supposedly from Patty's father; they both used Murphy in 1940 US Census while living with Patty's aunt and uncle. Actually, Murphy never existed. Patty's father was in actuality David Fayette Pangburn. They were unmarried and Katie put Murphy on the birth certificate. DNA of Patty's daughters proved this connection. Patty divorced Gordon around 1961 after the birth of their 4th daughter. She later married John Baker. They also divorced. In May 2018, Patty's ashes were interred in Orem City Cemetery with her husband, Gordon Arne Flikeid, to honor the wishes of their four daughters. Information updated and provided by Patty's oldest daughter.
