Patsy was born on December 25, 1951, in Reynolds, Georgia, to the late Owen R. Gaultney, Sr. and the late Sara J. Gaultney. Patsy was a member Central Baptist Church, and the Warner Robins High School Class of 1970. She was a long time member of the floral industry. She was an innovative and creative Floral Designer who owned her own shop, A-Bo-Kay Florist, in Warner Robins. She was employed by floral shops at every duty station Bob was assigned to, but was especially proud of her talents displayed when she worked at a prestigious shop in Old Town Alexandria where she was called on to design flowers for the White House, President Reagan, Vice-President Bush, and other Dignitaries. In addition to her gift with flowers, she was also employed variously to do bookkeeping and administrative work, most notable at the Virginia Theological Seminary, and her own company, Hodge-Podge Services. Patsy was also very social and civic-minded, beginning in her childhood with Daisy Girl Scouts, Basketball, and Choir. She continued through her life with organizations like the Pilot Club, where she was a charter member of the Warner Robins chapter, to other things like being President of the NCO Wives Club. She was also a member of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority. Her love of children called her to be President of the PTA and involved in other school boards and committees, in addition to her avid support of children's services via schools, Rainbow House and HODAC. Patsy was a well-known genealogist and was frequently called upon by friends and family for assistance and knowledge.
She was preceded in death by her husband MSgt (USAF Retired) Robert L. Adams, and her brother Tony L. Gaultney.
She is survived by her daughters Leesa Adams (Steven Heisler) of Titusville, Florida; Jessica Maatta (Bert) of Melbourne, Florida; Laura Adams Henry of Warner Robins; brother. Rusty Gaultney (Brenda) of Warner Robins; sister Kathy Slaughter (Cy) of Macon, Georgia; and her beloved granddaughter, Maria Maatta. As well, she leaves behind many nieces, nephews, cousins, uncles, and other beloved extended family members and her special, long-time friend, Fred.
