There is a bond death cannot sever, love and friendship last forever. The Lord will receive her with open arms…..Cousin “Bootsy”

July 25, 2024 at 9:32 pmI worked with Patsy as a VISTAS she was our director. I saw how committed and what a hard worker she put in a lot time helping others. I remember her understanding and caring ways. She was truly a very sweet woman that cared about so many others.

July 30, 2024 at 7:59 pmMet Patsy 50+ years ago, oh the fun we had, what great times! She worked as a Paralegal in my office. We both had busy lives, but we started a great friendship & through the yrs we would reconnect for birthdays, wedding, or just lunch or dinner & drinks. We would laugh & cry just talking about memories & our families & friends. Patsy’s family & friends were always in her heart, she loved them all. RIP my friend, you will remain in my heart & memories with your big smile.
