Patricia Elrod Obituary

Patricia D. Elrod passed away on October 28, 2025 at the age of 84. She was preceded in passing by her parents, Earnest and Loletta Elrod; and one sister-in-law, Janie Elrod. Patricia leaves to cherish her memories, one sister, Janet "Penny" Hylander (Johnny); one brother, William Elrod; four nephews, Craig Hylander, Ryan Elrod (Amy), Matt Elrod, Robbie Elrod (LeeAnn); and one niece, Angela Elrod. Patricia was a very selfless woman. Being the oldest of 3, she started at a young age to be the generous, overly giving and loving person that she was. Patricia's passion for people showed as she was a retired Real Estate agent after working for Crye-Leike for 20+ years. She loved to bake cakes and give them out to everyone. Patricia frequently bought ink pens and was prepared to give them out to anyone who needed them, no matter where she was. Most importantly, she loved spending precious time with her family, spoiling her nieces and nephews. Her love for people, life, and kind spirit will be greatly missed. In lieu of flowers, the family asks everyone to make a donation to a charity of your choice.
