Patsy Ann Meinhardt, of Ironton, MO, entered into rest on Thursday, August 28, 2025, at the age of 85 years, 10 months, and 18 days. She was born October 10, 1939, in St. Louis, MO, to the late Phillip Arthur and Mildred Camellia (Erxleben) Conrad. On December 28, 1959, Patsy was united in marriage to Charles Raymond Meinhardt who preceded her in rest on April 26, 1995. To this union five children were born, Sherry Epperly of Navarr, FL, Connie Inman of Fredericktown, MO, Michael Meinhardt of Ironton, MO, Christina Pool and husband James of Waxhaw, NC, and Matthew Meinhardt and wife Tonya of Troy, IL, all of whom survive. Also surviving are nine grandchildren, Jason and wife Dawn, Travis and wife Cailee, Josh and wife Brittany, Justin and wife Mary, Jonathon, Morgan, Kristen and husband Christopher, Keri and husband Brandon, and Adalynn; 10 great-grandchildren, Jack, Lucas, Lyla, Grant, Griffin, Malachi, Emma, Chandler, Averi, Griffin, and one on the way, Hollie; one brother, Arthur Conrad of Mehlville, MO, a niece Sarah, and many more loving family members and a community of friends. She is preceded in rest by her parents, her husband, Charles, and a nephew, Mark. Patsy was a very special woman to many people in our community. She was known for being a loving and caring mother to her children and grandchildren, she worked for local florists Kelley's Cottage of Flowers and The Country Bouquet, and loved spending time in her church, St. Paul's Lutheran Church. She loved Bible studies and her Bible, she loved art and creating beautiful paintings of diamonds, working in her flower garden, reading, being an avid Bunko player, and volunteered at the Food Pantry. Patsy's life was full of love, happiness, family and friends. She always had a smile, an interesting story to tell, and love to share. Patsy Ann Meinhardt was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. She will be missed by all who were blessed to know and love her. A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, beginning at 1:00 pm from the Cole Family Chapel in Ironton. A Visitation for friends and family to gather will be held on Tuesday, September 2, 2025, beginning at 5:00 pm and lasting until 8:00 pm from the Cole Family Chapel in Ironton.
