Barbara Clay Obituary

Visit the Bond Memorial Chapel - Mount Juliet website to view the full obituary.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Barbara Patricia (Patsy) Clay, a loving Mother, Grandmother, Registered Dental Assistant for 32 years at Providence Dental Care, and a remarkable woman who was loved by all who knew her. Patsy’s brief and courageous battle with cancer came to an end on October 28, 2025, at Alive Hospice. Patsy was 77 years young.

Born in Nashville and a longtime resident of Hermitage, TN, Patsy was preceded in her passing by her parents, C.E. (Gene) & Flossie Clay, and brother, Kenneth Eugene Clay.

Patsy’s loving spirit and boundless love will live forever in the hearts of her daughter, Dawn Edgin (Richard), her grandchildren, Brittany Henderson (Joey), Whitney Owens, Michael Edgin (Katelyn), Cassidy Edgin (Jay Young), and Nolan Bonds. Her great-grandchildren, Weston Edgin, Audrey Henderson, Emerson Binkley, Colter & Rhett Young, Lainey Kate & Karson Edgin. Her sister, Cindy Bumbalough, along with nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, and colleagues.

Her radiant smile that never met a stranger, her commitment and dedication to family, friends, and a career she loved, will continue to inspire us all. Her spirit will live on through each of us, and we will forever cherish her impact on our lives.

Services to celebrate her life will be held at Bond Memorial Chapel, Mt. Juliet, TN. Visitation will be on Thursday, November 13, from 5:00 p.m.- 8:00 p.m. Funeral services will be on Friday, November 14, with visitation from 10:00 – 11:00 a.m., with service beginning at 11:00 a.m. Burial will be at Spring Hill Cemetery, Nashville, TN, following the service.

The family would like to thank the amazing support teams at Tri-Star Summit Medical Center, Tri-Star Skyline Medical Center, Tennessee Oncology, and Alive Hospice.
