ROCHESTER, Ind. — A 24-year-old soldier from northern Indiana died while deployed in Iraq, a funeral home said.
Army Sgt. Nicholas Patterson died Sept. 10 in Baghdad, according to Earl-Love Funeral Home in Rochester. Information on the circumstances of Patterson’s death was not immediately released Sept. 12 by the Department of Defense.

“He was a highly competitive, high-energy kid,” baseball coach Brian Hooker said. “You never had to worry about him not bringing his full energy to the field.”
