Patsy was a lifelong resident of the Brandon and Pearl area. She lived a simple and fulfilling life, grounded in her Baptist faith.

Jones, James William Jones, and Danny Lester Jones. She is also survived by her siblings Ricky Sawyer, Peggy Herrin, and Mike Hill and her two grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

A memorial service to honor Patsy's life will be held on March 28, 2026, at 11:00 a.m., at Ott & Lee Funeral Homes in Brandon, located at 1360 W Government St, Brandon, MS 39042.

Patsy Elizabeth Sawyer's quiet strength, warmth, and love will be dearly missed by all who knew her. We remember her as a kind soul with a heart full of simple joys and lifelong love for those around her.
