Patsy was a loved and valued member of our Frontier Town family when it was under the ownership of Mitch and Gene Parker, and managed by my husband, Harold "Deck" Decker. Whether lovingly planting flowers at the cabins, tending plants with Sandy, teaching water aerobics, guarding the back pool or helping with many events run by Kim and the Activities Department, Patsy gave it her all. She loved being a "Work Camper" as seasonal resident employees are known in the industry, being one of the first in and last out when the Halloween Weekends were done. She was devoted to her husband Ron, but I think she might've loved her animals just a little more. Just kidding, but I especially remember her love for Tink. My daughter Kacey, who worked summers in Activities, has fond memories of Patsy and was deeply saddened by this news. Kacey said "There wasn't a bad bone in that woman's body." Rest well and in peace Patsy. I bet you and Charlie Claypool are having a catch up and chatting and laughing at all the good and sometimes crazy times at our beloved Frontier Town Campground. In friendship & with deep sympathy, Kathy Decker
