Patsy Payne Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Patsy's avid love for gardening and flowers was well known to everyone who knew her. She found immense joy in tending to her garden, often spending hours outside nurturing her garden and taking care of her flowers. She also loved fruit trees. Her passion extended beyond just planting and tending; she also cherished and took pride in canning and making jelly from their harvests.
In addition to her green thumb, Patsy had a special place in her heart for her dogs, who were her constant companions and brought her endless happiness. Her home was always filled with wagging tails and joyful barks, a testament to the love she had for her furry friends.
Patsy will be remembered for her dedication to her garden, culinary skills in preserving nature's bounty, and unwavering affection for her dogs. Her memory will forever bloom in the hearts of those she touched with her kindness and love.
She was preceded in death by her parents and a sister, Linda Quattlebaum.
