Patsy's family was her pride and joy. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Robert F. Graves and her son, Kevin Graves.

A testament to her enduring legacy and love are her seven grandchildren and one great grandchild, who brought immeasurable joy. Alongside the direct line of her kin, Patsy's memory will be cherished by her numerous nieces and nephews, whom she adored as if they were her own.
