My sympathy to Patsy’s family. Patsy was a very kind tender person who loved children and helping them. She had the soul of an angel.
Bless Patsy! She was one of the first smiling faces that greeted us when we joined the church. I was in several Bible Study groups with her. Patsy’s simple faith, love of Christ and devotion to understanding God’s word were always an inspiration. She always said that she was not afraid to die/ eager to see God’s glory: I am confident that she is welcomed ‘Home Forevermore’! Her smile is lighting up Heaven!
I had many experiences with Patsy through the years, especially during the time we were in Fayetteville.
I am so thankful that I had brought her to my house in Columbia to spend a day because she had wanted to see where we live.
I am also grateful that I got to see her at the HNC in Tullahoma and had a good visit while she was feeling well and “eating a GOO GOO Cluster.”
She will always be in my heart.
